Ready VS Code family probe / automationProfile Windows Difficulty Easy

AWS's agentic IDE (Code OSS lineage): wired per the family-shared probe on an inferred basis — agents.md marks it inferred, not machine-tested; it should hit the launcher once niubash is installed.

settings.json · explicit automationProfile (the probe hits by default; this is for precise control)
{
  "terminal.integrated.automationProfile.windows": {
    "path": "C:\\Users\\<你>\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Niubash\\niu.exe",
    "args": []
  }
}

Steps

  1. Default: the family-shared probe should hit the installer-placed launcher (inferred, not machine-tested)
  2. For precise control: point automationProfile at niu.exe in Kiro's settings

Verify

echo "SHELL=$SHELL"; uname -s — expect uname -s to start with MSYS_NT-

Rollback

Delete the terminal.integrated.automationProfile.windows setting
