… on call - cmd/daemon/main.go: default -telemetry-url to telemetry.DefaultEndpoint when PILOT_TELEMETRY_URL is unset. Previously the daemon silently dropped all telemetry because the flag defaulted to "" (hard no-op). - cmd/pilotctl/appstore.go: emit app_usage event after a successful `pilotctl appstore call`. Previously this event was only reachable through the daemon supervisor path, not the direct IPC call path. Both emissions are consent-gated (telemetry flag, default on) and best-effort.

What
Two telemetry gaps closed:
1. Daemon never sent events by default
The
-telemetry-urlflag defaulted to""(hard no-op) unlessPILOT_TELEMETRY_URLwas set explicitly. Thetelemetry.DefaultEndpointconstant was only printed in help text, never used. Allapp_usageevents from the daemon supervisor were silently dropped.2.
pilotctl appstore callnever emittedapp_usageThe
app_usagekind was only reachable through the daemon's internal supervisor path, not the direct IPC call path that users actually invoke. Everypilotctl appstore call <id> <method>went untracked.Fix
cmd/daemon/main.go: fall back totelemetry.DefaultEndpointwhenPILOT_TELEMETRY_URLis unset (same pattern pilotctl already uses)cmd/pilotctl/appstore.go: emitapp_usageafter a successful call, consent-gated + best-effortTest
Both paths can be verified with
PILOT_TELEMETRY_URL=https://telemetry.pilotprotocol.networkand checking BigQuery for incoming events.
