Research direction

Start by mapping the plugins invoked during semantic analysis and the forward-reference handling involving tuple_type and typeddict_type. Review the existing test coverage for those interactions and identify missing combinations across plugins. Done means tests cover the relevant plugin and forward-reference interactions without regressions.

Description

priority-1-normal topic-plugins topic-tests

I think it makes sense to check interaction of every plugin (especially those that are called during semantic analysis and/or touch tuple_type, typeddict_type etc.) with forward references.
