Why
AgentCall has Linux and macOS coverage, but no Windows compatibility evidence. The published CLI explicitly declares "os": ["darwin"], the main CI job runs on Ubuntu, the packed-consumer job runs on macOS, and README still names non-macOS platforms as a v1 non-goal.
Before changing supervision or packaging, establish a native-Windows feedback loop and turn the current failures into an explicit implementation inventory. A Linux Docker container on a Mac is not Windows evidence: it cannot exercise NT paths, ACLs, PowerShell quoting, Windows process trees, Task Scheduler, or Windows agent binaries.
This is the Windows successor to #14, which was closed by #195 after delivering Linux/systemd/container support.
Scope
- Add a
windows-2025 GitHub Actions job that runs on a real GitHub-hosted Windows VM.
- Exercise Node 20, 22, and 24 where the published
engines contract matters; avoid multiplying the entire slow suite unless the results justify it.
- Run build, typecheck, and platform-neutral tests under PowerShell.
- Pack the shared and CLI workspaces and install the tarballs into a clean prefix on Windows.
- Run
agentcall --version and agentcall --help; record the expected setup/doctor/listener failures until the implementation issue lands.
- Audit and classify Windows blockers in at least these areas:
- npm
os metadata
- absolute/managed-policy paths
- Unix-only fixture shebangs and executable bits
chmod(0600/0700) versus Windows ACLs
- launchd/systemd listener supervision
- detached process groups, negative PIDs, and SIGTERM/SIGKILL teardown
- binary discovery and
.cmd/.exe resolution
- shell/PowerShell quoting and paths containing spaces
Acceptance criteria
Testing environment decision
Use GitHub-hosted Windows VMs as the required regression gate. Use a Daytona Windows VM for interactive debugging and the end-to-end probe. Docker on macOS may remain a Linux portability check, but is not part of the Windows support claim.
