install.ps1 already kept uv's bootstrap Python out of the Windows
registry, but setup-hermes.ps1 did not, so every Windows dev checkout
registered that interpreter under HKCU. The flag is Windows-only; the
POSIX installers take it too so every bootstrap issues the same command.
- build_update_products builds only the frontends the checkout carries; a
python-only slice (the installer's acceptance fixture) publishes commands
and runs maintenance without asking PM for node.
- stderr_timestamp.py is a launcher boot file copied into published
commands; it inlines the EX_CONFIG code instead of importing gateway.restart.
- Tests: the stamp-writer slice gains hermes_cli/release_channels.py and
pm/paths.py (the modules update_channel now imports); the source-launch
fixture records the source_completion hand-off (--finish-update) instead
of building products; the stdlib recovery probe blocks PM's engine
modules, not the pm.environments boot leaf; the memory-provider restart
test selects a generation the running interpreter has not activated;
the warm-path installer stage is `products`.
Root-level tests/ is for root-level modules; 19 files testing scripts/, 3 testing
pm/ and 5 testing hermes_cli/ move to the mirrored directory (workflow file lists
and cross-imports updated; path arithmetic bumped one level).
tests/pm gains a conftest with the isolated_machine_home fixture that seven
modules had copy-pasted verbatim.
