Summary

Dedupes the dual delivery path (#38, the headline #32-review flaw). Boot-install delivers declared plugins on every boot before online; the post-online reconcile re-delivered via EIC + restarted (no tracking row → always 'missing') = the observed ~12-min reprovision churn. Now: if the plugin is already on the box, reconcile records the tracking row only (no EIC/restart); else delivers (safety net). Conservative presence-check.

Root-cause not symptom

Removes the redundant deliver+restart, not the symptom.

No backwards-compat shim / dead code added

Tracking row still written; drift/UI unaffected; safety-net deliver retained.

Comprehensive testing performed

TestReconcile_BootInstalled_RecordsWithoutDeliver + existing reconcile suite green; go build/vet/test ok.

Local-postgres E2E run

sqlmock reconcile tests; behavioral path is template-delivery-e2e (no reprovision churn).

Staging-smoke verified or pending

PENDING — verify a fresh seo-agent no longer re-provisions ~12min post-online after deploy.

Five-Axis review walked

Correctness (present→record-only, absent→deliver), Security (read-only EIC probe), Idempotency (tracking row always written), Blast-radius (conservative false→deliver; safety net), Observability (logs the dedupe).

Headline design-flaw fix from the #32 review. The runtime-image entrypoint
boot-installs declared plugins to the box on EVERY boot, BEFORE the box
registers online. The post-online ReconcileWorkspacePlugins then ran anyway:
because boot-install writes no workspace_plugins tracking row, the reconcile
saw every declared plugin as "missing" and re-delivered it via EIC + fired
restartFunc — a full SaaS re-provision. That's the observed ~12-min reprovision
churn (one wasted new instance per fresh workspace; converges after one cycle).

Fix: before delivering, check if the plugin is already on the box
(pluginPresentOnBox → readPluginManifestViaEIC). If present (boot-installed),
record the workspace_plugins tracking row ONLY — no EIC push, no restart. If
absent (boot-install disabled/failed, or a non-image path), deliver as before
(safety net). pluginPresentOnBox is conservative: false on any uncertainty
(not SaaS / no instance / read error / empty manifest), so a genuinely-missing
install is never silently skipped — only a confirmed-present one is deduped.
Tracking row is still written either way, so drift-sweeper + UI keep working.

Test: TestReconcile_BootInstalled_RecordsWithoutDeliver — present-on-box →
recorded but NOT delivered. Existing reconcile tests green. go build/vet/test ok.
