Summary
CODEX_OBSIDIAN_ZSH_PATH./usr/local/bin/zshas the default for backward compatibility.Why
The sanitized macOS launcher currently hardcodes
/usr/local/bin/zsh. That path is not present on every Mac, so otherwise valid Obsidian CLI commands fail before Zsh starts. The root cause is the fixed executable path rather than Obsidian CLI availability.Impact
Existing users see no behavior change when the variable is unset. Users whose Zsh lives elsewhere can set an absolute path, for example
CODEX_OBSIDIAN_ZSH_PATH=/bin/zsh, without editing the plugin.Validation
git diff --check.codex-plugin/plugin.jsonand.agents/plugins/marketplace.jsonwithjq./usr/local/bin/zsh.obsidian versionsuccessfully withCODEX_OBSIDIAN_ZSH_PATH=/bin/zsh.
