* FIX - repair inventory metadata and ESX contracts
Use the stable core_inventory metadata setter and validate the complete inventory adapter contract after provider bridges load. Preserve the real ESX configuration error instead of cascading into a missing RegisterUsableItem failure.
* FIX - clarify phone opening without SIM
* FIX - harden inventory and device contracts
Validate SIM number configuration before item handling, preserve QB metadata mutation contracts, and propagate phone-open failures to callers. Extend regression coverage for inventory bridges and device bootstrap errors.
* FIX - resolve reported phone interaction issues
Stop game-input passthrough while NUI text fields are focused and add an independent hold-to-look option. Propagate SIM number formatting to the frontend, migrate configured currency symbols to utf8mb4, and clarify SkyRide, VaultX, and DarkChat behavior with focused contract coverage.
* FIX - detect missing packaged phone UI
Validate the generated NUI entrypoint, its referenced assets, and required static media when the resource starts. Print an actionable server-console warning for incomplete source archives, package phone sounds through the manifest, and cover the detection contract with Lua regressions.
