* Fix coding-agent terminal shortcuts not working on Windows
On Windows, opening a Terminal profile (Claude Code / Codex / OpenCode) did
nothing, and afterwards even a plain New Terminal stopped working until restart.
Three Windows-specific problems combined:
- A failed node-pty conpty spawn completes asynchronously on its conout worker
thread; the uncaught exception escaped the per-request try/catch and crashed
the whole terminal worker, severing every terminal. Add uncaughtException /
unhandledRejection guards so a single bad spawn keeps the worker alive.
- Profile commands were passed to conpty unresolved. conpty's CreateProcess
ignores PATHEXT, so bare codex (npm codex.cmd) wasn't found and .cmd/.bat
shims can't run directly. Add resolveTerminalSpawnCommand() to resolve the
real path and route .cmd/.bat through cmd.exe /c on Windows.
- winget-installed CLIs (e.g. Claude Code) live under the winget Packages dir
and aren't on PATH. findExecutable() now falls back to those known install
locations, so all providers and terminal profiles benefit.
Also surface a failed terminal create to the user via a toast instead of
silently dropping the error.
* Address review: simplify winget scan, narrow worker exception guard
- Drop the single-element WINGET_PACKAGE_BIN_SUBDIRS loop in executable.ts and
map package dirs directly to the root <name>.exe candidate.
- Remove the unhandledRejection handler in the terminal worker (only the
uncaughtException path is exercised by conpty's async spawn failure) and
expand the comment to explain the keep-alive trade-off and the absence of a
worker restart path.
* Refactor executable resolution out of utils
* Serialize terminal create requests in worker
