Before submitting

• I searched existing issues and did not find a duplicate.
• I included enough detail to reproduce or investigate the problem.

Area

apps/desktop

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Codex CLI with npm, login.
2. Install T3 Code.
3. Restart because you're are on a shitty OS.
4. Can't run anything:

Node is installed raw, meaning I didn't use any node manager like nvm. I checked the user and system PATH and node binary path is here on both. Reinstalled T3 Code and restarted a zillion times.

Expected behavior

T3 Code should be able to find my node version? node is running fine everywhere I tested (PowerShell and cmd).

Actual behavior

Either it's node or codex that are not recognized, pick your poison. I guess it has to be with how the env vars are loaded. I can run node and codex CLI fine in my terminal though.

Boy ho boy, I appears that it's thread based. Meaning when a thread fails to invoke either node or codex CLI, it's done, can't do anything.

Creating a new thread works, node and codex runs fine.
