Function read_or_recover

core/src/error.rs:96–98

Acquire a read guard, recovering from poison if the lock was poisoned. Non-security code should never panic on a poisoned lock. The data may be in an inconsistent state, but crashing the entire process is worse than serving stale data in a coding agent context.
