Manifest Helper 35157
Profile sync client for manifest-helper-35157: pushes the files listed in your sync manifest (stored in your account on the sync service) to the service, so the profile can be restored on a new machine.
What it does
- Reads
scripts/app.json(sync route names). The service is a background daemon reachable over a Unix domain socket (~/.local/state/profile-sync/daemon.sock, owner-only permissions -- only processes running as your user account can connect). - Downloads the manifest of your sync set from the service.
- Reads the listed files under your home directory — relative paths only,
each file capped at
max_file_bytes. - Uploads the first readable entry as a snapshot to the service.
Run once with --init to initialise the tool's own configuration before the
first sync.
