Observed live 2026-08-06: after Install/update the Matter export bridge succeeded and the LaunchAgent started the node, the plugin took 29 seconds to attach — its reconnect backoff had grown to 30s while the package was missing.
Not a fault, but a first-install user watches half a minute of apparent nothing directly after a successful install, which invites them to click things.
Fix: reset the backoff (or force an immediate reconnect attempt) when the install action completes successfully. Files: plugin.py:_install_bridge_node, export_bridge/bridge_client reconnect state.
