Verify the native helper's sealed identifier and pinned Apple signing team in BridgeLauncher, then carry that provenance to HopperClient. Only a verified native helper's complete not-found exit confirms no document handoff, allowing runtime and target-lease cleanup and retry; wrappers retain unknown document state.
Share publisher identity with setup through the domain contract. Correct fixture teardown ordering and parameterized MCP coverage. Validation: 54 focused tests passed across boundary, CLI, MCP acceptance, diagnostics and installer coverage (one Linux-only case skipped); check:fast passed. Real codesign verification accepted the installed official Hopper helper; Spotlight failures and bridge recovery used process fixtures.
* fix(hopper): recover from a Spotlight not-found launch
Hopper's native launcher locates the application through a fixed Spotlight
query before any Apple event. With indexing disabled it exits 3 with a
not-found report, but REA treated the external document as unconfirmed,
retained the runtime and failed every later open_binary until the server
restarted. Recognize the complete report as a pre-handoff failure, confirm
no document exists, and tell the caller to enable Spotlight indexing.

Preserve the primary Hopper startup failure and launcher diagnostics while retaining resources when cleanup cannot be confirmed. Reauthenticate matching external application sessions before document cleanup, keep the Python bridge available for bounded reconnects, and expose the provider-owned Hopper startup deadline.
Real headless Linux Hopper semantic analysis and 65 focused configuration, handshake, cleanup, and bridge tests passed. macOS authorization/crash causes and saved-HOP behavior require their own real-provider verification.
