Why
Installing the Codex, Claude, or Goose desktop app does not install the command-line harness Buzz needs. The current UI makes that distinction unclear, links some missing-CLI states to adapter documentation, and can report a successful install from the installer exit code even when runtime discovery still fails. On Windows, Buzz also invokes Goose's Bash installer, which writes the executable somewhere Buzz does not discover.
What
Risk Assessment
Medium. This changes desktop onboarding and runtime installation behavior. Successful installs now require the runtime catalog to verify availability; previously hidden discovery failures will surface as actionable errors instead of a false success state.
