This is a minimal npm package that fixes the $PATH environment variable on macOS and Linux when an application is launched from a GUI (e.g., Electron). It uses the shell-path package to retrieve the shell's PATH, strips ANSI escape codes, and sets process.env.PATH accordingly. On Windows, it is a no-op. The codebase is a single ES module with TypeScript definitions, unit tests, and CI. It is well-maintained by Sindre Sorhus and has no open issues. The implementation is straightforward and does not contain any complex architecture or reusable components beyond the package itself.
