v3.26.2

Fixed

• Agent CLIs installed outside the conventional bin dirs were invisible to the desktop app — Kimi showed "not found" in a GUI-launched Pneuma while which kimi resolved fine in a terminal. Three independent defects compounded into that one symptom:

  • The login-shell PATH capture never worked, on any shell. path-resolver.ts interpolated its sentinel as "___PATH_START___$PATH___PATH_END___". Underscores are legal identifier characters, so bash, zsh and fish all parsed that as a single variable named PATH___PATH_END___ — always empty. The marker regex never matched and captureUserShellPath() silently returned buildFallbackPath() every single time. Markers now sit on their own lines.
  • The desktop-side copy had a second, fish-specific bug. desktop/src/main/bun-process.ts read the value with echo $PATH, but fish stores PATH as a list and joins it with spaces rather than colons. Combined with -i loading interactive rc files, shell greeters (fastfetch et al.) wrote ANSI art into the same stdout, all of which was .trim()ed straight into PATH. Both copies now use printenv PATH, strip ANSI, and validate that the captured value contains at least one real directory before accepting it.
  • ~/.kimi-code/bin was absent from the fallback dir list. This is why only Kimi went red: claude and codex live in ~/.local/bin, which the hardcoded list already covered, so they stayed green despite the two capture bugs. Kimi Code moved there from ~/.local/bin when it rebranded — hence "it broke after I updated".

  The defects were mutually masking: a terminal-launched process already has a correct process.env.PATH, and the fallback list covered the usual locations, so the failure needed both a GUI launch (minimal OS-supplied PATH) and a binary outside the list. getEnrichedPath() now also appends the fallback dirs unconditionally at lowest precedence, so a thin-but-successful capture can no longer hide an installed CLI. resolveBinary was verified to agree with the user's shell for claude / codex / kimi / gh / bun, and to resolve all three agent CLIs under a simulated GUI environment. The desktop copy is a deliberate duplicate — desktop/tsconfig.json pins rootDir: "src" — and the two now cross-reference each other.

Notes

• .claude/rules/server.md records both traps, plus a reminder that backends/*/__tests__/lifecycle.test.ts runs against live CLIs and models: a single failing run is not evidence of a regression. During this fix one flaky codex run briefly pointed the wrong way before a re-run came back clean.
