Homebrew install path fixed, and Claude Code no longer crashes on startup after .app hook installs
Homebrew installations will no longer throw errors, and manual App installers don't have to worry about broken config files. Previously, installing usage via Homebrew would fail at the very last step due to a misaligned zip path, throwing a "file not found" error; the path is now fixed, so a simple reinstall works flawlessly. Furthermore, if you dragged the .app to your Mac and clicked "Install Status-Line Hook", it used to accidentally write the path to the app's internal, bundled Python interpreter into your config. Because that internal Python can't run independently outside the bundle, Claude Code would completely panic on startup, throwing errors about missing libraries and refusing to show the status line. It now strictly uses your Mac's built-in system Python. If your config was already corrupted by the old version, don't worry—it automatically repairs itself the next time you launch or re-run the setup. It's like a car dealership handing you a proprietary charging cable that only fits the sockets inside their showroom, leaving you stranded with a dead car at home; now they hand you a universal cable, and if they gave you the wrong one earlier, they'll magically swap it out for the right one.
