fix: suppress PowerShell stderr noise from uv tool install#99
Merged
Conversation
PowerShell with $ErrorActionPreference='Stop' treats any native command stderr output as a NativeCommandError. uv writes progress info (e.g. "Resolved 53 packages") to stderr, causing scary red error text even when install succeeds. Wrap the call in try/catch and rely on $LASTEXITCODE instead. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Problem
When installing conductor on Windows via
irm https://aka.ms/conductor/install.ps1 | iex, users see scary red error text even though the install succeeds:Cause
The script sets
$ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'. PowerShell converts any native command stderr output intoErrorRecordobjects, and withStopmode, these surface asNativeCommandErrorexceptions.uvwrites progress info (like "Resolved 53 packages") to stderr, triggering this.Fix
Wrap the
uv tool installcall intry/catchand capture stderr with2>&1. The$LASTEXITCODEcheck still correctly determines success/failure.
