What is the correct/best way to get $q.bex/bridge in a boot file or a pinia store?

When I open my bex popup i want to load the state from the background script. The only way to communicate with the background script is through the $q.bex/bridge. But I don't have access to this.$q.bex in a boot file or in a pinia store function and there is nothing like useBridge.

My best approach is something like this:

const globalProperties = app.config.globalProperties;
let bridge = null;

while (!bridge) {
	await wait(50);
	bridge = globalProperties.$q?.bex;
}

But this is ofc not a good way. How do I do this the correct way?
