Research direction

Reproduce the crash on the reported Android 14 device or an equivalent environment, then start at RustInterface.startServer in the native crash backtrace and inspect the surrounding startup logs. Use logcat and symbolized native traces to identify the abort; done means the app opens without crashing and startup behavior is covered by an appropriate regression check.
