fix(desktop): keep windows process PATH for managed agents by Chessing234 · Pull Request #2354 · block/buzz

Chessing234 · 2026-07-22T10:58:28Z

Summary

on Windows, login_shell_path() returns None on purpose so children inherit the real PATH
build_augmented_path still returned a managed-only PATH (~/.local/bin + exe parent), and runtime overwrote the child PATH with it
system Node then disappeared ('"node"' is not recognized)
when shell PATH is missing, append the process PATH; add regression tests

Closes #2327

unit tests for process-PATH fallback / shell-path preference
on Windows with system Node only: launch a Claude Code managed agent and confirm harness starts

when login-shell path is missing on windows we now append the process path so system node stays visible.
