configured notifications prepared services

Error message

configured notifications prepared services

What it means

Internal invariant directly following the previous one: `configured_services` is computed as Some(...) when `services_enabled || notifications_configured` (src/cli/bootstrap.rs:1171-1175). Inside `if notifications_configured`, the unwrap at line 1180-1182 therefore always succeeds because notifications_configured implies the prepare branch ran. The expect is a refactor guard tying notification validation to service preparation.

Solutions

1. If hit as a user: update mise — the build is broken, config is not at fault
2. Workaround: strip `notify` from bootstrap files/directories config so the validation branch is skipped
3. As a contributor: keep `services_enabled || notifications_configured` as the prepare condition, or downgrade the expect to a bail! naming the invariant
4. Report with backtrace at https://github.com/jdx/mise/issues

Example fix

// before (broken refactor):
let configured_services = services_enabled
    .then(|| system::services::prepare_requests_from_config(&config).ok().flatten()) // None when skipped
    ...expect("configured notifications prepared services"); // panics

// after: notifications force service preparation
let configured_services = if services_enabled || notifications_configured {
    Some(system::services::prepare_requests_from_config(&config)?)
} else {
    None
};

When it happens

Trigger: Only a source change that computes configured_services without including notifications_configured in its condition (or that enters validate_notifications without preparing services) — panics during `mise bootstrap` when notify entries exist. Unreachable via CLI flags in the current code.

Common situations: Contributors restructuring the services preflight conditions; broken builds. Real runs with `--skip=services` plus notify config still prepare services precisely because notifications_configured forces the Some branch.
