+ * Pull the platform's own repository.

+ *
+ * ── What it refuses, and why ──
+ *
+ * A dirty tree, and a non-fast-forward. Same two refusals as `pullPlugin`, for the same reason: this
+ * checkout is somebody's working copy on at least one machine, and a button that discards uncommitted
+ * work is worse than a button that does not exist. `--ff-only` so a divergence is reported rather than
+ * merged by a machine.
+ *
+ * ── What it does NOT do ──
+ *
+ * It does not rebuild, restart, install dependencies or push the schema. Those are separate buttons and
+ * separate decisions — `bun install` after a lockfile change is a supply-chain moment the frozen-lockfile
+ * rule exists to make deliberate, and `db:push` alters a live database. So this REPORTS when the pull
+ * touched `package.json`, `bun.lock` or a schema file, and leaves the choice with whoever pressed it.
