Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Fix macOS PATH issue by using login shell

On macOS, GUI apps don't inherit the user's full PATH from their shell
profile. This caused commands like 'npx', 'node', or 'claude' to not be
found, resulting in "/bin/sh: claude: command not found" errors.

The fix uses the user's login shell (from $SHELL env var) with the -l
flag to load their profile and get the full PATH environment. This
ensures all commands installed via npm, homebrew, etc. are accessible.
