[onboarding] Failed to persist onboarding tasks; continuing

Error message

[onboarding] Failed to persist onboarding tasks; continuing completion

What it means

Best-effort catch around setOnboardingTasks during onboarding completion: persisting the onboarding-task snapshot to the core failed (RPC error, core not reachable), but the flow deliberately logs and continues rather than blocking the user at the finish line. The log line marks this as intentional — completion proceeds even though the persisted localState snapshot may be missing/stale for this session.

Solutions

1. Verify the core is running (the setOnboardingTasks RPC target) and retry onboarding completion if a persisted state matters
2. Check for stale-snapshot issues the defense-in-depth comment references (#3096) if tools appear missing later
3. Usually ignorable — completion state on the backend flag is the authoritative record
