+
+**A config-booted app no longer loses its `onEnable` — every `script` action's
+handler reaches the engine again instead of 404'ing at dispatch (#4095).**
+
+`os serve <config>` calls `createStandaloneStack()`, which reads
+`dist/objectstack.json` and returns a ready-made `AppPlugin` for the app. That
+satisfied serve's "does the host already wrap itself with an AppPlugin?" guard,
+so the `new AppPlugin(config)` built from the LOADED MODULE — the only one
+carrying the module's `onEnable` — was skipped. A JSON artifact cannot hold a
+function, so the app booted with all of its metadata and none of its code.
+
+On `examples/app-todo` that meant eight declared `script` actions, zero
+registered handlers, and every button answering
+`404 Action 'complete_task' on object 'todo_task' not found`. The example is
+correctly authored: it declares `target: 'completeTask'`, registers
+`todo_task:completeTask`, and exports `onEnable`. serve carried that hook intact
+all the way to the branch that discarded it.
+
+Serve now grafts the module's executable members onto the app bundle already
+registered, rather than dropping them with the wrap:
+
+- Only members `AppPlugin` actually executes travel — `onEnable` and the
+  `functions` map that string-named hook/job handlers resolve against. (`onDisable`
+  is deliberately excluded: it is declared in `packages/spec` but no kernel,
+  runtime or service ever calls it, so grafting it would wire a hook nothing
+  runs.)
+- The artifact stays the metadata source of truth. Neither side is a superset —
+  the artifact carries compile-time enrichment the config never has (ADR-0046
+  packaged docs, which serve already grafts the other way) — so this moves code
+  only, and never metadata.
+- Targeting is by `manifest.id`, so a host composing several `AppPlugin`s can
+  never have one app's handlers attached to another. With no id to match, it
+  falls back to the single app bundle present and refuses when there are several.
+- A bundle's own value always wins, so a host that wrapped itself on purpose is
+  untouched.
+- Code that finds no bundle to land on is now reported with a boot warning naming
+  the consequence ("they 404 at dispatch") instead of vanishing. That silent drop
+  is what hid this.
+
+Verified end to end on `examples/app-todo`: `POST /api/v1/actions/todo_task/complete_task`
+went from `404 RESOURCE_NOT_FOUND` to `{"success":true}`, `export_csv` now returns
+real CSV, and the `[action-governance]` boot warning naming all eight actions is
+gone. 14 unit cases pin the graft and — as importantly — the cases where it must
+refuse; one end-to-end case boots a real stack through `bin/run-dev.js` and fails
+against the pre-fix command.
+
+Note that `os serve <config>` still cannot boot at all when `dist/objectstack.json`
+is absent (#4085, `Service 'manifest' is async - use await`). That was verified to
+be a **separate** defect on the other side of the same fork, not this one: the
+failure reproduces unchanged with this fix applied.
