Node not found in WSL environment with nvm

[hanfengcan]

Description

Environment

• Platform: Linux (WSL2)
• Distribution: WSL_DISTRO_NAME=opencode
• Node Version: v24.15.0 (installed via nvm at ~/.nvm/versions/node/v24.15.0/bin/node)
• npm Version: v11.12.1
• Shell: bash

Problem

When OpenCode executes bash commands, which node fails and node --version cannot be found, even though nvm is installed.

Environment Variables at Runtime

HOME=/home/user
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/usr/lib/wsl/lib
npm_config_user_agent=npm/undefined node/v24.3.0 linux x64 workspaces/false

Expected

• which node should return a valid path
• node --version should work

Actual

• which node → no output (node not found)
• node --version → command fails
• nvm node exists at /home/hanfengcan/.nvm/versions/node/v24.15.0/bin/node
• npm_config_user_agent shows node/v24.3.0 instead of nvm's v24.15.0

Root Cause

The PATH does not include nvm's node bin directory. nvm is not automatically sourced in OpenCode's bash execution context.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install node via nvm in WSL
2. Run OpenCode
3. Execute any bash command that checks for node

Additional Context

Running source ~/.nvm/nvm.sh && nvm use node makes node available, but this requires manual intervention in every command.

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

• Shell sessions losing $PATH value from parent shell #4968: Shell sessions losing $PATH value from parent shell — describes the same root cause (OpenCode spawns a non-interactive, non-login shell that doesn't source ~/.bashrc/~/.nvm/nvm.sh, so nvm-managed Node paths are missing from PATH)
• Desktop app local MCP can fail when PATH resolves an older Node, while CLI works #22299: Desktop app local MCP can fail when PATH resolves an older Node — related PATH/Node version resolution discrepancy between the shell environment and OpenCode's execution context

If your issue is the same underlying problem as #4968, please add a reaction or comment there to help signal priority.
