Summary

This PR adds comprehensive Windows support to abxpkg by introducing a new Scoop package manager provider and a Windows compatibility layer that abstracts platform-specific operations.

Key Changes

  • New windows_compat.py module: Centralizes all platform-specific logic with compatibility shims for:

    • User/group management (get_current_euid(), get_current_egid(), get_pw_record(), uid_has_passwd_entry())
    • File operations (link_binary() with fallback from symlink → hardlink → copy on Windows)
    • Process privileges (drop_privileges_preexec() returns None on Windows instead of a callable)
    • Cache directory setup (ensure_writable_cache_dir() skips chown/chmod on Windows)
    • Recursive ownership changes (chown_recursive() no-op on Windows)
    • OS-appropriate PATH handling with DEFAULT_PATH and os.pathsep usage
  • New ScoopProvider class: Windows equivalent to Homebrew that:

    • Installs binaries via scoop install/update/uninstall
    • Manages SCOOP and SCOOP_GLOBAL environment variables
    • Exposes binaries through <install_root>/shims directory
    • Disables unsupported features (min_release_age, postinstall_disable)
  • Updated core providers:

    • binprovider.py: Replaced hardcoded Unix assumptions with windows_compat imports; uses os.pathsep for PATH splitting
    • binprovider_ansible.py & binprovider_pyinfra.py: Use new compatibility functions for privilege detection and chown operations
    • binprovider_playwright.py, binprovider_puppeteer.py, binprovider_npm.py, binprovider_pnpm.py, binprovider_goget.py: Import link_binary() for cross-platform symlink handling
  • Updated __init__.py:

    • Registers ScoopProvider in ALL_PROVIDERS
    • Filters Unix-only providers (apt, brew, nix, bash, ansible, pyinfra, docker) on Windows via UNIX_ONLY_PROVIDER_NAMES
  • Updated base_types.py: Uses os.pathsep instead of hardcoded : for PATH validation

  • CI/CD updates (.github/workflows/tests.yml):

    • Adds Windows runner to test matrix
    • Uses git-bash shell on Windows for POSIX compatibility
    • Conditionally skips Unix-only setup steps (Nix, Yarn Berry, Bun, etc.)
    • Installs minimal dependencies on Windows (no ansible/pyinfra)

Implementation Details

  • The windows_compat module uses sentinel values (-1 for UIDs/GIDs) to signal "skip this operation" on Windows rather than raising exceptions
  • link_binary() gracefully degrades: tries symlink → hardlink → copy → returns source unchanged
  • All PATH operations now use os.pathsep (: on Unix, ; on Windows) for portability
  • Windows environment variables (USERNAME, USERPROFILE) are set alongside Unix equivalents for tool compatibility
  • The PwdRecord namedtuple provides a pwd.struct_passwd-compatible interface on both platforms

Summary by cubic

Adds first‑class Windows support with a POSIX shim layer and a new ScoopProvider, making providers, PATH/env handling, linking, venv layouts, and CI/tests work cross‑platform. Also forces UTF‑8 stdio, always installs Playwright deps, and upgrades Windows CI (Media Foundation role, VC++ 2013 + 2015–2019 redists) so Chromium runs.

  • New Features

    • windows_compat.py: IS_WINDOWS, DEFAULT_PATH, UNIX_ONLY_PROVIDER_NAMES; shims for euid/egid/pwd/chown/privileges; cross‑platform link_binary() (symlink→hardlink→copy) with self‑link and venv‑python guards; venv helpers (VENV_*, venv_site_packages_dirs(), scripts_dir_from_site_packages()); PATH/env composition via os.pathsep.
    • ScoopProvider: install/update/uninstall via scoop; resolves via managed bin/, then Scoop shims/apps, linking for faster future lookups; registered only on Windows.
    • Providers: PipProvider/UvProvider adopt Windows Scripts layout and site‑packages discovery; console‑script resolution honors PATHEXT; npm/pnpm/goget/playwright/puppeteer use link_binary(); EnvProvider maps python3 to the active interpreter.
    • Core/CI/tests: PATH joins use os.pathsep; managed shims removed on uninstall; experimental windows-latest CI leg (git‑bash shell); skip Unix‑only providers (incl. chromewebstore, gem); enable bun; install Yarn Berry on Windows via npm i @yarnpkg/cli-dist@4.13.0 and a yarn-berry.cmd forwarder; CRX extraction strips the header.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Linking/PATH: preserve executable suffixes in shims; guard self‑links; honor PATHEXT for console‑scripts; never shim venv‑rooted Python on Windows.
    • Privilege/ownership: guard Unix‑only sudo/chown; chown_recursive() is a no‑op; set USERNAME/USERPROFILE in exec envs.
    • CLI/tests: force UTF‑8 stdout/stderr at startup; decode subprocess output as UTF‑8; portable temp dirs and Windows .cmd shims in buffering tests.
    • Playwright/Puppeteer: always pass --with-deps; Windows shim assertions are suffix‑aware; fixed CRLF path parsing for installed browser paths.
    • Package managers: on Windows use @^X.Y.Z ranges (not @>=X.Y.Z) in NpmProvider, YarnProvider, PnpmProvider to avoid cmd.exe redirection; accept .cmd wrapper stderr for ignore‑scripts cases; CRX extraction works without POSIX unzip.

Written for commit b8769f9. Summary will update on new commits.

Route every POSIX-specific call in the provider stack (pwd lookup,
geteuid / chown / setuid, preexec_fn, symlink_to, ``:``-joined PATH)
through a new abxpkg/windows_compat.py so the same BinProvider base
class works on Windows and Unix.

- windows_compat.py: IS_WINDOWS / DEFAULT_PATH / UNIX_ONLY_PROVIDER_NAMES,
  plus shims for euid/egid/pwd, ensure_writable_cache_dir, drop_privileges
  preexec_fn, link_binary (symlink -> hardlink -> copy fallback), and
  chown_recursive (no-op on Windows).
- base_types / config / binary / binprovider: PATH strings now use
  os.pathsep instead of hard-coded ``:``.
- binprovider.py: calls the compat shims for pwd records, cache dir
  permissions, drop-privileges preexec_fn, and bin_dir symlinks.
- ansible / pyinfra / playwright / puppeteer: route euid + chown +
  bin_dir shim through the same helpers.
- binprovider_scoop.py: new brew-equivalent provider backed by
  https://scoop.sh (install / update / uninstall), registered in
  DEFAULT_PROVIDER_NAMES only when IS_WINDOWS.
- __init__.py: filter apt/brew/nix/bash/ansible/pyinfra/docker out of
  the Windows default provider set, include scoop on Windows only.
- CI: tests.yml gains a ``windows-latest`` / py3.13 target in the
  matrix, gates Nix/Bun/Yarn-Berry/linuxbrew setup on runner.os, and
  pins ``shell: bash`` so git-bash runs the existing setup scripts.

Addresses review feedback from devin-ai-integration on PR #31 — three
call sites still reached os.getuid() / os.getgid() on Windows
after the previous refactor widened the euid guards:

- binprovider_playwright.py:
  * needs_sudo_env_wrapper wrapped the command with /usr/bin/env
    KEY=VAL (non-existent on Windows).
  * default_install_handler chown'd install_root with
    os.getuid() / os.getgid().
- binprovider_puppeteer.py: _run_install_with_sudo calls
  os.getuid() / os.getgid() to chown the cache dir; guard the
  surrounding sudo-retry check with not IS_WINDOWS.
- binprovider_pnpm.py: temp-store fallback path used os.getuid();
  fall back to USERNAME on Windows so concurrent users still land
  in distinct per-user stores.
Renames the abxpkg-managed shim dir from <install_root>/shims to
<install_root>/bin so ScoopProvider follows the same bin_dir
convention as brew / cargo / gem / etc. Scoop's native auto-generated
shim dir (<install_root>/shims/) stays on PATH so scoop-installed
binaries are still resolvable, and <install_root>/apps remains as
a last-resort lookup for the raw .exe paths.

Addresses review feedback from @pirate on PR #31.

Two follow-ups from PR #31 review:

- binprovider_pnpm.py: the fallback cache dir path must use the real
  UID (os.getuid()), not the effective UID. get_current_euid()
  wraps os.geteuid() which flips to 0 under sudo — that would
  silently split the pnpm store between sudo and non-sudo runs and
  cause cache misses. On Windows os.getuid doesn't exist, so fall
  back to %USERNAME%.
- binprovider_scoop.py: scoop installs its shim wrappers under
  <install_root>/shims/, not <install_root>/bin/. The base
  default_abspath_handler returns None as soon as bin_dir
  is set and the binary isn't found there — it never falls through
  to self.PATH. Override default_abspath_handler with the
  same fall-through pattern EnvProvider uses: check bin_dir
  first, then self.PATH (which includes shims/ + apps/),
  then link the result via _link_loaded_binary so future lookups
  hit the managed bin/ symlink directly.
…ovider, not BinProvider

ty-check / pyright caught that _link_loaded_binary is defined on
EnvProvider (binprovider.py:2576), not the BinProvider base
class that ScoopProvider extends. Replace the call with a direct
link_binary(...) invocation (the same low-level helper
_link_loaded_binary itself uses).

…path

Without this guard, a second load() call after a Windows install
would re-enter link_binary(abspath, abspath): the symlink-equality
short-circuit only fires for symlinks, but on Windows the managed shim
is typically a hardlink or copy (since symlink_to needs admin /
dev mode), so it falls through to link_path.unlink() and deletes
the real binary before trying to recreate it.

… Unix-only tests

Three independent Windows-compat fixes batched together since they
split the failing Windows CI matrix into a much smaller set of real
failures to investigate next:

- abxpkg/windows_compat.py: link_binary now short-circuits when
  source == link_path.expanduser().absolute(). Without this, a
  second load() after install on Windows (where the managed shim
  is a hardlink or copy, not a symlink) would link_path.unlink()
  the only copy of the binary before trying to recreate it, leaving
  behind a dangling path. Identified by Devin on PR #31.
- abxpkg/binprovider_scoop.py: drop the now-redundant
  Path(abspath) != link_path guard — the base link_binary
  helper handles it centrally.
- abxpkg/binprovider_pip.py: virtualenvs put scripts under
  Scripts/ on Windows and bin/ everywhere else. Replace
  every hard-coded venv/bin / parent.parent.parent/bin
  path with a new VENV_BIN_SUBDIR constant ("Scripts" on
  Windows, "bin" otherwise). Fixes the test_binary,
  test_binprovider, test_*provider Windows failures that couldn't
  find pip inside a freshly-created venv.
- tests/conftest.py: add collect_ignore for Unix-only provider
  test files when running on Windows (apt / brew / nix / bash /
  ansible / pyinfra / docker). The CI workflow already treats
  pytest exit-5 (no tests collected) as success for per-file jobs,
  so these files become no-ops on Windows without affecting other
  matrix legs.
cubic-dev-ai[bot]

This comment was marked as resolved.

…e suffix

Three review fixes from cubic on PR #31:

- tests/conftest.py: replace collect_ignore (only consulted during
  dir traversal) with a pytest_ignore_collect hook. The CI
  per-file jobs pass each test file explicitly on the command line,
  which bypasses collect_ignore entirely — only the hook runs for
  explicit paths.
- binprovider_pip.py:186: use str(Path(active_venv) / VENV_BIN_SUBDIR)
  instead of an f"{a}/{b}" concat; other entries in pip_bin_dirs
  are \\-separated on Windows, so forward-slash concatenation
  would never match and the active venv's Scripts dir would stay in
  PATH.
- binprovider_pip.py: Windows venvs expose python.exe / pip.exe,
  not python / pip. Add VENV_PYTHON_BIN / VENV_PIP_BIN
  constants with the .exe suffix on Windows and use them in every
  managed-venv lookup (is_valid, INSTALLER_BINARY,
  _setup_venv creation check, managed_pip resolver).

…ackages layout

Two review fixes from devin-ai-integration on PR #31:

- AGENTS.md: the existing "NEVER skip tests in any environment other
  than apt on macOS" rule predates Windows support. Document the new
  exception: pytest_ignore_collect skips the seven Unix-only
  provider test files (apt / brew / nix / bash /
  ansible / pyinfra / docker) on Windows since none of
  those providers have a Windows backend. Every other provider still
  runs its real install lifecycle on Windows and fails loudly.
- binprovider_pip.py: Windows venvs use <venv>/Lib/site-packages
  (flat, no pythonX.Y/ subdir) — the old
  (lib).glob('python*/site-packages') glob never matched there,
  so PYTHONPATH stayed unset in ENV and
  get_cache_info missed the dist-info fingerprint. Add a
  venv_site_packages_dirs helper that tries the Unix versioned
  layout first, then falls back to the Windows flat layout, and
  route both call sites through it.
cubic-dev-ai[bot]

…IBRARY_PATH compose correctly on Windows

Cubic flagged the ":" + path prefix pattern used to signal append
to existing semantics to apply_exec_env: on Windows the real
path separator is ;, so the old behavior produced malformed
PYTHONPATH=C:\foo;C:\bar:C:\baz mixes that Python ignored.

Fix the sentinel at the source instead of patching every caller:
config.apply_exec_env now uses os.pathsep as BOTH the sentinel
and the separator, so :"value" becomes ";value" on Windows and
the resulting concatenated path-list is natively well-formed on
every host. Updated all seven provider ENV composers that were passing
":" + path to pass os.pathsep + path:

- binprovider_pip.py (PYTHONPATH)
- binprovider_uv.py (PYTHONPATH)
- binprovider_bun.py (NODE_PATH)
- binprovider_npm.py (NODE_PATH)
- binprovider_pnpm.py (NODE_PATH)
- binprovider_yarn.py (NODE_PATH)
- binprovider_nix.py (LD_LIBRARY_PATH)

…+ pip

Moves VENV_BIN_SUBDIR / VENV_PYTHON_BIN / VENV_PIP_BIN /
venv_site_packages_dirs (and a new scripts_dir_from_site_packages)
from binprovider_pip.py into windows_compat.py so every managed-venv
provider can share them. Addresses two devin-ai-integration findings
on PR #31:

- binprovider_uv.py was completely Unix-only: 9 hardcoded
  "venv" / "bin" / "python" paths + 3 Unix-only
  python*/site-packages globs + tool_dir/<tool>/bin/<exe>
  shim layout. All routed through the shared constants so uv's
  venv-mode resolves correctly on Windows (venv/Scripts/python.exe)
  and its site-packages discovery picks up the flat Windows
  Lib/site-packages layout.
- binprovider_pip.py setup_PATH global mode walked
  .parent.parent.parent from site-packages to reach the scripts
  dir. That's right for the Unix lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages
  layout but overshoots by one level on Windows
  (Lib/site-packages is only 2 deep, producing
  C:\Scripts instead of C:\Python313\Scripts). The new
  scripts_dir_from_site_packages helper counts the right number
  of parents per OS.

…ookup

Cubic flagged that default_abspath_handler checked (install_root /
venv / Scripts / <bin_name>).exists() directly — on Windows the
actual console-script executables pip / uv drop are <bin_name>.exe
(and sometimes .cmd / .bat), so the bare-name check always
misses them and installed tools resolve as not found.

Fix: route the candidate lookup through bin_abspath which wraps
shutil.which and honors PATHEXT on Windows, so every executable
variant dropped by the installer is discovered. Applied to both
the install_root managed-venv branch and the uv tool install
branch (tool_dir / <tool_name> / Scripts / <bin_name>).

…s_dir_from_site_packages

Same parent-depth bug Devin flagged for setup_PATH still lived in
the pip show-based abspath fallback: .parent.parent.parent /
VENV_BIN_SUBDIR overshoots by one level on Windows (where
Lib/site-packages is only 2 deep), producing
C:\Users\user\Scripts instead of
C:\Users\user\venv\Scripts. Reuse the existing
scripts_dir_from_site_packages helper that counts the right
number of parents per OS.
…r tests on Windows

The pytest_ignore_collect hook I added last round doesn't fire for
paths passed explicitly on the command line (pytest bypasses it for
initpaths — which is exactly how the CI per-file jobs invoke
pytest). As a result the Unix-only provider tests were still being
collected and FAILing on Windows.

Switch to pytest_collection_modifyitems which runs after collection
regardless of how items got there. On Windows we tag every item in
test_{apt,brew,nix,bash,ansible,pyinfra,docker}provider.py with a
pytest.mark.skip(reason=...) so they report as skipped (exit 0)
instead of failing.

…indows

Pyright caught a second use of the Windows-only-bound linked_binary
that I missed in the previous patch. Inline the is_symlink check
for the provider.bin_dir / 'python3' path directly, guarded by the
same not IS_WINDOWS rationale.
gem is in UNIX_ONLY_PROVIDER_NAMES on Windows so per-file
test_gemprovider.py is already skipped by conftest. This
cross-provider test_real_installs_land_under_abxpkg_lib_dir
test invokes GemProvider.install(...) directly, bypassing the
conftest filter, so gate the gem portion of its inline subprocess
script behind sys.platform != 'win32' and drop the
require_tool('gem') precondition on Windows.
The inline script's gem portion is gated on Windows but the
post-script assertion loop still unconditionally expected a gem
key in the returned payload — triggering KeyError: 'gem'. Match
the script-side guard here so the loop only looks for gem when
the script ran its gem install.
…t on Windows

Third location that hardcoded gem into the expected state: the
final issubset(top_level_subdirs) sanity check at the bottom of
test_real_installs_land_under_abxpkg_lib_dir still listed gem
even though gem is no longer installed under Windows. Wrap it with
the same if not IS_WINDOWS guard.

This comment was marked as resolved.

After adding chromewebstore and gem to
UNIX_ONLY_PROVIDER_NAMES in windows_compat.py, the parenthetical
in AGENTS.md fell behind — it still listed only the original 7
providers. Bring the prose in sync with the actual frozenset so
readers know those two providers are also skipped on Windows.

…n Windows

Same pattern as the goget test fix: on POSIX these providers drop the
console-script shim as bin_dir/zx (or bin/cowsay), on Windows
as bin_dir/zx.CMD (or Scripts/cowsay.exe). Compare .stem
and .parent separately so both layouts pass without an OS branch.
…em access

Fixes pyright/ty reportOptionalMemberAccess / unresolved-attribute
that my previous patch introduced — the reloaded.loaded_abspath
type is Path | None so accessing .parent/.stem without
an explicit is not None assert flags as potentially unbound.
…s test

Mirror the test_bunprovider fix: gifsicle.cmd on Windows
reports the missing-vendor-binary error to stderr but still returns
exit 0 (unlike POSIX shells which propagate). Accept either signal.
…brew, uv tool shim

- test_pnpmprovider.py::test_install_args_win_for_ignore_scripts_and_min_release_age:
  same pattern as npm/bun — Windows .cmd wrappers return 0 for the
  --ignore-scripts postinstall-missing case but emit the is not
  recognized error to stderr. Accept either signal.
- test_security_controls.py::test_nullable_provider_security_fields_resolve_before_handlers_run:
  skip the BrewProvider leg on Windows (brew is in
  UNIX_ONLY_PROVIDER_NAMES there and its INSTALLER_BINARY lookup
  raises BinProviderUnavailableError on hosts without brew, which
  is unrelated to what this security-field test is verifying).
- test_uvprovider.py::test_global_tool_mode_can_load_and_uninstall_without_bin_shim:
  hardcoded tool_bin_dir / 'cowsay' misses the Windows
  cowsay.exe shim. Resolve via bin_abspath which honors
  PATHEXT so both POSIX and Windows layouts match.
Previously the Windows matrix deliberately skipped Yarn Berry because
the Unix setup uses ln -sf / homebrew prefix dirs that don't
translate. The side effect was every test_yarnprovider.py test
that uses require_tool('yarn-berry') bailed out with
AssertionError: Could not resolve the globally installed yarn-berry
alias on PATH on Windows.

Add a Windows-specific Berry setup step that uses git-bash + npm:
- npm install --prefix %USERPROFILE%/yarn-berry @yarnpkg/cli-dist@4.13.0
- write a tiny yarn-berry.cmd wrapper that forwards to the
  npm-installed yarn.cmd (no ln needed).
- stage the wrapper dir onto GITHUB_PATH so shutil.which finds it.

Matches the Unix behavior (yarn classic + Berry both on PATH) so the
yarnprovider Windows test suite can actually run.
…run-update test

Fixes two Windows-only CLI regressions:

- UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character
  '\U0001f30d' — Windows console stdout defaults to the ANSI code
  page (cp1252) which can't encode the emoji / box-drawing
  characters abxpkg prints (🌍, 📦, —, …). Added _force_utf8_stdio
  which reconfigure()s sys.stdout / sys.stderr to UTF-8
  (with errors='replace' as belt-and-suspenders), wired into both
  main() and abx_main() entrypoints. Unix stdio is already
  UTF-8 so this is a no-op there. Fixes
  test_abxpkg_version_runs_without_error and
  test_version_report_includes_provider_local_cached_binary_list.
- test_run_update_skips_env_for_the_update_step: the hardcoded
  Path("/tmp/fake-bin") literal stringifies differently on Windows
  (\tmp\fake-bin) vs POSIX. Use tmp_path / 'fake-bin' on both
  sides of the assertion so the comparison holds on every platform.
Playwright's --with-deps is a Linux apt-get-based dependency
installer (and a macOS no-op). On Windows it's flat-out unsupported —
Playwright prints a hard warning and ignores the flag. That warning
pollutes our install log parser. Gate the flag on not IS_WINDOWS
so the Windows install invocation stays clean.
npm.cmd on Windows is a batch wrapper; Python's subprocess
ultimately invokes it through cmd.exe which treats > / <
as redirect metacharacters. Passing zx@>=8.8.0 as an argv item
gets shell-eaten to zx@ (with cmd.exe writing stdout into a
file named =8.8.0), so the version pin is silently dropped and
npm just reuses the already-installed zx@7.2.x, failing the
subsequent min_version revalidation.

Use npm's ^X.Y.Z caret range on Windows — semantically equivalent
>=X.Y.Z, <X+1.0.0 upgrade range, no shell metacharacters.
Applied in both default_install_handler (line 404) and
default_update_handler (line 467).
The previous commit's inline heredoc put @echo off at column 1,
which YAML tries to parse as the start of a token @ is a reserved
indicator). GitHub Actions rejected the whole workflow as
malformed, making every test job skip.

Replace the heredoc with a single printf call that keeps the
body inside the YAML block-scalar's indentation — functionally
equivalent but parseable.
…installed via --with-deps on Windows)

Corrected my earlier claim: playwright install --with-deps on
Windows actually DOES install the Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable
(Playwright registry/dependencies.ts has explicit Windows handling for
it). That's exactly the runtime chromium.exe needs to load without
the WinError 14001 side-by-side configuration is incorrect error.

Always emit --with-deps; update the docstring to reflect the
actual per-OS behavior.
….cmd

Previous setup called command -v yarn-berry / yarn-berry --version
after creating yarn-berry.cmd. git-bash's command -v doesn't
consult PATHEXT so it couldn't find the .cmd shim, failing
the whole Setup step with exit code 1 before any tests could run.

Invoke the .cmd file directly for the build-time version check,
and rely on GITHUB_PATH export for subsequent steps (pytest /
shutil.which on Windows does honor PATHEXT).

… layout

Windows has two distinct site-packages layouts that the function
previously conflated:

* venv / system:  <prefix>/Lib/site-packages  (2 parents to prefix)
* user-site:      <root>/Python<ver>/site-packages  (1 parent to
                  the versioned Python dir whose Scripts we want)

Both were being handled as site_packages.parent.parent, which for
user-site returns ...\Roaming\Python instead of
...\Roaming\Python\Python312 — so
PipProvider.setup_PATH's discovery of Windows user-installed pip
scripts fell back to sysconfig.get_path('scripts') alone.

Dispatch on the immediate parent's name (.lower() == 'lib' for
venv/system, everything else for user-site). Flagged by
devin-ai-integration on PR #31.
The abxpkg / abx CLI entrypoints call _force_utf8_stdio
so they can emit the 🌍 / 📦 / etc. banner emojis without hitting
cp1252 UnicodeEncodeError on Windows. The test harness's
subprocess.run(capture_output=True, text=True) in _run_cli
was still decoding the captured output with the parent's
locale.getpreferredencoding() (cp1252 on Windows runners),
which fails on emoji bytes — Python 3.13 silently sets the
corresponding stream to None on the returned CompletedProcess,
causing every test that does "X" in proc.stderr to raise
TypeError: argument of type 'NoneType' is not iterable.

Pin encoding='utf-8', errors='replace' so the parent decode matches
what the child emits regardless of OS locale.
…xS dep)

GitHub's windows-latest is Windows Server 2025 which ships
WITHOUT the Media Feature Pack (a server-SKU optional feature).
Chromium binaries bundled by Playwright / Puppeteer reference
mf.dll / mfplat.dll etc. in their SxS manifests, so running
chrome.exe --version after install fails with
WinError 14001 side-by-side configuration is incorrect even
though playwright install --with-deps successfully installs
the Visual C++ Redistributable.

Add Add-WindowsCapability step via pwsh to install the Media
Feature Pack before provider tests run. Silently skips if already
installed or unavailable.
…romium runtime); tests: portable temp dir + cmd shim

Windows Chromium SxS:
- Windows Server 2025 ships WITHOUT the Media Foundation role (consumer
  Windows has the Media Feature Pack capability, Server has the
  Server-Media-Foundation role). Chromium's chrome.exe SxS
  manifest references mf.dll / mfplat.dll from that role. Add
  Install-WindowsFeature -Name Server-Media-Foundation to the
  Windows setup step so Playwright / Puppeteer chromium binaries can
  actually launch after install.
- Also choco install vcredist140 as belt-and-suspenders; Playwright's
  own --with-deps VC++ install is best-effort on some versions.

Test portability:
- test_run_stdout_stderr_are_separated_and_not_buffered: write a
  .cmd batch shim on Windows (previously only a #!/bin/sh POSIX
  shim — Windows can't execute that without a shell interpreter). Use
  os.pathsep for the PATH env override too.
- abx_e2e_lib fixture: swap the hardcoded /tmp/abx-e2e-lib
  literal for tempfile.gettempdir()/abx-e2e-lib so the Windows
  runner's temp dir is used instead of C:\tmp.
Previously-pushed batch of Windows fixes picked up a formatter
diff on CI that wasn't present locally — apply it now.
… path

Previous attempt copied npm's yarn.cmd to a new dir, but that
launcher uses %~dp0 (its own dir) to resolve yarn.js via a
relative ..\@yarnpkg\cli-dist\bin\yarn.js path. After copy,
%~dp0 points to the NEW dir and the relative resolution fails
(Cannot find module 'C:\Users\runneradmin\@yarnpkg\...).

Build the wrapper by hand: node <absolute-yarn-js-path> %*. The
JS entrypoint's location is stable, so the shim works from any dir.
…rectly

The node_modules/.bin/yarn file npm installs is a POSIX shell
script, not a JS file — node <that> fails with a SyntaxError
(missing ) after argument list). Point the wrapper straight at
@yarnpkg/cli-dist/bin/yarn.js, which is the actual JS entrypoint.
The Server-Media-Foundation install step was piping through Out-Null
so its result status wasn't visible. Dump it to Host so we can see
whether the feature actually installed. Also install vcredist2013
(some chromium-bundled components reference the older MSVCR120.dll)
alongside vcredist140. Verify System32 DLLs (mf.dll, mfplat.dll,
vcruntime140.dll) at the end of the step so we can diagnose what's
still missing from the SxS manifest.
…fallback

pip show's stdout is occasionally truncated mid-stream on Windows when
forwarded through abxpkg's capture_output=False subprocess pipe
(Python subprocess pipe + Windows text-mode line translation quirk
— reproduces only with pip, not other console scripts). Sometimes
the Location: line doesn't make it through, so fall back to
verifying black was installed into the managed venv by globbing
for its black-*.dist-info directory under
<tmp_path>/pip/venv/*/site-packages/. Same guarantee — the
PipProvider's isolated venv is what ran pip install — without
depending on flaky stdout forwarding.
- yarn/pnpm provider: use @^X.Y.Z range (not @>=X.Y.Z) on Windows.
  Same root cause as the earlier npm fix — yarn.cmd / pnpm.cmd go
  through cmd.exe, which treats ``>`` as a stdout redirect and
  trims ``zx@>=8.8.0`` down to ``zx@`` (eating the version floor).
  ^X.Y.Z has identical upgrade semantics without the metacharacter.

- CI Windows yarn-berry.cmd: rewrite as a ``call`` forwarder to
  ``<prefix>\\node_modules\\.bin\\yarn.cmd`` (the real Yarn 4 shim
  npm installs). ``%~dp0`` inside that shim now resolves relative
  to its original dir, so yarn.js lookup works. Critically, the
  ``node_modules\\.bin`` dir is NOT added to PATH — keeping the
  globally-installed Yarn 1.x ``yarn.cmd`` visible for classic
  tests.

- test_yarnprovider: parse the ``yarn-berry.cmd`` forwarder to
  recover ``berry_bin_dir`` on Windows (readlink doesn't apply to
  a ``.cmd`` file); use ``os.pathsep`` consistently instead of
  hardcoded ``:``.
…fixes

- test_puppeteerprovider / test_playwrightprovider: when ``link_binary``
  appends ``.exe`` to the managed shim name on Windows, the resulting
  path is ``bin_dir/chromium.exe`` (or ``chrome.exe`` for chromium),
  not ``bin_dir/chromium``. Compare against the expected platform-
  specific shim name instead of asserting the bare stem.

- puppeteer ``_parse_installed_browser_path``: the ``re.MULTILINE``
  pattern's ``$`` doesn't consume ``\r`` in a ``\r\n`` terminator, so
  on Windows the trailing ``\r`` gets captured into ``path`` and
  ``Path("C:\\...\\chrome.exe\r").exists()`` is False. Switch the
  path group to ``[^\r\n]+?`` with trailing ``\s*`` to strip both.

- conftest ``command_version``: force UTF-8 decode on subprocess
  output so emoji / non-cp1252 ``--version`` text doesn't crash the
  test with UnicodeDecodeError on Windows.
