Startup Activation Report Added

Problem solved by startup reporting

When multiple render paths and feature flags exist, it is easy to misread which configuration is actually running. Startup activation reporting fixes that with an explicit runtime snapshot.

This reduces false debugging trails caused by stale assumptions about active systems.

• Build provenance is emitted at startup.
• Active subsystem selection is reported consistently.
• Critical override sources are listed in one place.

Operational value

The report makes issue triage faster by allowing logs and screenshots to be matched with exact runtime state. This is especially useful in branches with active experimentation.

It also improves confidence when validating milestone claims against real runs.

• Faster reproduction of configuration-specific bugs.
• Lower risk of testing the wrong feature path.
• Cleaner audit trail for performance and visual investigations.

Expansion path

Next iterations will attach lightweight performance baselines and key capability limits to the same startup output. That will further reduce time-to-diagnosis in hardware-specific issues.

The intent is to keep reporting concise while still decision-useful.

• Extend with GPU capability and limit summaries.
• Include selected debug toggles in report output.
• Preserve deterministic formatting for log tooling.

Key metrics snapshot

Startup reporting quality is measured by whether configuration state can be reconstructed from logs without opening the build manually.

The target is complete run-context visibility with minimal noise.

• Build provenance fields present in every startup report.
• Active subsystem list completeness per run.
• Override-source coverage for runtime-affecting settings.
• Configuration mismatch incidents after report adoption.
