Your installation keeps running what it has, and takes what loads
Three things are now true of every add-on (module) on every installation, by policy:
- If no newer version ships for the platform you run, the version you have keeps running. A newer build that cannot load on your platform never removes the one that can.
- Whether an add-on loads is measured, not declared. An add-on used to carry a minimum platform version as text, and a mismatch in that text blocked it — even when the add-on would have loaded perfectly. Today, 2026-09-07, that text held every production portal on the morning's build for the whole day. From now on the platform checks the add-on's bytes against what is actually running; the declared version is shown on the add-on's row for information and decides nothing.
- The moment a newer version that loads is published, you get it — within minutes, not at your next restart of convenience.
The rule and the plan that implements it are on Module Adoption Policy. Until the first step lands, the existing behaviour applies and the pages describing it carry a banner saying so.
