Bootstrap aliases preserve a pre-existing truthy value. Other native aliases appear on their function pages.

Executor namespaces

syn, fluxus, krnl, protosmasher, sentinel, oxygen_u, and scriptware receive the same shim table when not already set.

Member	Behavior
request	Native request function
queue_on_teleport	Native queue_on_teleport function
loadstring	Native loadstring function
protect_gui(gui), unprotect_gui(gui)	Return gui unchanged
crypt.base64_encode, crypt.base64encode	Base64 encoder
crypt.base64_decode, crypt.base64decode	Base64 decoder
oth.hookfunction, oth.restorefunction	Hook and restore functions
websocket.connect	WebSocket.connect

The shim reads encrypt/decrypt/hash/generatebytes/generatekey and cache helpers from globals that this environment does not normally register. Those entries are absent. Use crypt.encrypt, crypt.decrypt, crypt.hash, crypt.generatebytes, crypt.generatekey, and cache.invalidate/iscached/replace directly.
