+ * Hook scripts stay dependency-free — there is no node_modules beside a marketplace-installed
+ * plugin — so the path is duplicated here and the two must change together, the same
+ * arrangement `daemonEntryPointerPath` already documents for ensure-daemon.mjs. Read that one
+ * for why the file exists; this one only has to agree with it.
+ *
+ * Two properties of that contract are load-bearing here and are easy to break by accident:
+ *
+ *   - **Nothing reads the bytes.** The file exists or it does not. `pending` is what hands over
+ *     rendered text, on this machine, from the columns the database filled in — a flag holding
+ *     the message would be a second copy a hook could print without the framing (docs/messages.md
+ *     §5). So this stats; it never opens.
+ *   - **The session id is reduced before it becomes a filename**, identically to paths.ts. Two
+ *     sessions folding onto one flag costs an unnecessary IPC call; a `..` surviving into the
+ *     path costs a file somewhere else on disk.
+ *
+ * Existence is also the capability handshake, without needing a version byte: a daemon old
+ * enough to render only tell-shaped framing is a daemon that never writes this file.
