- Line 52: Update each Node subprocess invocation in the CLI tests, including
the spawnSync call, to pass Node’s --experimental-strip-types flag before the
TypeScript entry point or script arguments. Apply it consistently to all
subprocesses that execute TypeScript files.

official Node.js v22.16.0 documentation TypeScript type stripping --experimental-strip-types default
💡 Result:
**No.** In the official Node.js **v22.16.0** docs, `--experimental-strip-types` is needed to enable TypeScript type stripping; it is **not enabled by default**. The docs say default execution is limited to TypeScript files without features requiring transformation. ([nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/download/release/v22.16.0/docs/api/typescript.html?utm_source=openai))
Type stripping became enabled by default in **Node.js v22.18.0**, so that later behavior does not apply to v22.16.0. ([nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/api/typescript.html?utm_source=openai))

site:nodejs.org/download/release/v22.16.0/docs/api/typescript.html Node 22.16 .ts files without --experimental-strip-types erasable syntax default
💡 Result:
**No.** In Node.js **v22.16.0**, you must pass `--experimental-strip-types` to run `.ts` files. With the flag, Node can run files using erasable TypeScript syntax by stripping type annotations; syntax that requires transformation—such as enums—needs `--experimental-transform-types`. ([nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/download/release/v22.16.0/docs/api/typescript.html))
The “erasable syntax runs by default, without a flag” behavior applies to **v22.18.0 and later**, not v22.16.0. ([nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/download/release/v26.6.0/docs/api/cli.html?utm_source=openai))

Pass Node 22.16's TypeScript flag to each subprocess.
Node 22.16 requires --experimental-strip-types to execute .ts files. These subprocesses omit the flag, so they can fail before testing CLI behavior when NODE_OPTIONS does not provide it.

Warm WSL startup serializes runtime validation, executable hashing, provider PATH discovery, and a second execution of the CLI. The second execution repeats work that cache preparation has already verified.
Make runtime preparation return both the verified cache path and provider PATH. Discover PATH alongside cache preparation, retaining its original 10-second timeout. Within the installer, overlap the independent full-CLI check and SHA-256 calculation, and wait for both before reusing or promoting the cache. Remove the separate runtime-probe/invalidation API; the installer owns cache validation and repair. A full
--helpinvocation still loads the CLI dependencies, so a binary that merely prints a version cannot make a broken cache look ready.The final change is entirely in desktop WSL preparation. The server/CLI entrypoint is unchanged. Archive and executable hashes, install locks, atomic promotion, live-runtime retention, provider PATH discovery without a system Node dependency, and mounted-tree fallback are retained.
Windows-to-WSL warm runtime preparation: median 2410.51 ms -> 1101.10 ms, 2.19x as fast. Seven alternating runs per side, all successful. Before range: 2315.07–2628.23 ms. After range: 1043.99–1121.50 ms. An earlier independent seven-pair run of the same final scheduling returned 2340.12 ms -> 1105.24 ms, 2.12x.
Measurements start in Windows and include the real
wsl.exearchive-path conversion and install/PATH shell invocations. Both variants use the exact same 166,517,956-byte Linux x64 Node SEA executable, built from upstream with the repository's executable pack configuration and Node 26.8.2. Each cache hit still hashes that executable and loads the full CLI. Each run checks exit codes, the reported runtime root, and provider PATH. Only scheduling and redundant execution differ. Ubuntu and its runtime cache are already warm; archive extraction, Electron startup, and the subsequent server startup are excluded. This does not claim the whole desktop starts twice as fast.Validation:
