      Issue

      An unavailable remote can break startup before its exposed module is requested. The demo policy only softens this recommendation when every remote is an explicitly known-local bare/relative entry or loopback URL during development; external, authenticated non-loopback, unknown, and CI remotes remain visible.

      How to fix it

      Use loaded-first when delayed remote failure is acceptable, or keep version-first and add @module-federation/retry-plugin / an errorLoadRemote recovery plugin. A runtime plugin that deliberately sets shareStrategy to loaded-first (including Modern's shared-strategy plugin) is treated as the loaded-first choice.

      Suppress or retarget with rules["reliability/version-first-offline-remotes"] set to "off" or a severity — see Suppressions and allowlists.
