Research direction

Start with UpgradeActionRegistrar.java at tryAddToGroup line 100 and discoverAndRegisterAction line 63, using the provided duplicate-action exception as the entry point. Reproduce the IntelliJ plugin error if possible and trace why the JavaUpgradeContextMenuAction is registered twice; done means the action is registered once without the exception. No test or reproduction steps are included in the report.
