Description
Optimization: instead of reading the aot metadata JSON file every time we need to access the data, cache the information and update/clear the cache when necessary.

Research direction
The issue identifies the AOT metadata JSON file and the AOT repositories as the relevant entry points, but names no source files or tests. First locate where that metadata file is read and where repository data changes; then trace the required cache invalidation paths. Done means repeated access avoids redundant reads while updates and clears still expose current metadata, with relevant tests added or updated.
