Codeman itself always lived under $HOME; administrator rights were only spent on what it needs first (system packages for Node.js, tmux and git, Homebrew on a Mac). An account without those rights could not install it: the installer died in ensure_sudo, or in Homebrew's own installer. install.sh now has a no-admin route, taken by itself when the account has no administrator rights (no sudo binary; outside sudo/wheel/admin and `sudo -n true` fails; a refused sudo password; a Mac account outside the admin group with no writable Homebrew) and forced with --no-admin or CODEMAN_NO_ADMIN=1: - Node.js: the official tarball from nodejs.org, checked against the SHASUMS256.txt published beside it, into ~/.codeman/runtime/node. - tmux: the tmux project's own build (tmux/tmux-builds 3.7c), checked against a SHA-256 pinned in the installer, into ~/.codeman/runtime/bin. - Both are linked from ~/.local/bin (never over a file that is not ours), and the runtime is on PATH and on the LaunchAgent's PATH. - git is never installed. Without a working git the source comes as an archive, the install is marked with .install-source, and it updates by re-running the installer: the new tree is built beside the old one and swapped in only after the build succeeded. A later re-run on a machine that has gained git turns it back into a clone. - Nothing on this route runs sudo, Homebrew or `xcode-select --install`, and the route is never decided by `sudo -v`. What it cannot supply is checked before the first download: a C/C++ toolchain on Linux (node-pty 1.1.0 compiles there), musl, and macOS below 15 (the tmux build's deployment target). Along the way: - check_git no longer trusts `command -v git`. On a Mac without the Xcode Command Line Tools /usr/bin/git is a stub that opens Apple's install dialog; it is judged by `xcode-select -p` and never executed. Any other git is asked for its version. - scripts/git-hooks.mjs answers "not a checkout" without running git, for the same reason: postinstall calls it on every npm install. - The in-app updater knows the install kind `archive` and points such an install at the installer instead of `npm i -g aicodeman@latest`. - download() and download_to_stdout() resolve DOWNLOADER themselves. Only main() used to set it, so `install.sh cloudflared` died on `set -u` with the message swallowed by the step log. - The AI CLI menu leaves out a Homebrew-only install command where there is no Homebrew. Verified with the real installer: a bare Ubuntu 24.04 container as an unprivileged user (install, a PTY round trip through the API, update by re-run, cloudflared, uninstall), the same without a compiler (stops before any download), with a broken then working git, with sudo present but not usable, and on macOS 26 (arm64) in an isolated HOME with sudo, brew, git, the compilers, launchctl and tailscale replaced by tripwires. Not verified on a real standard macOS account: that account was an administrator. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
