March 2026 performance summary for ScoopInstaller/Main: Focused on strengthening installation robustness and cross-environment compatibility. Delivered a critical feature that enhances pipx installation reliability by adding a fallback to the py launcher when the python command is not available. This change improves user onboarding and reduces installation failures across environments where python is unavailable but the py launcher exists. The work aligns with our goals to improve UX, reduce support overhead, and accelerate time-to-value for users installing Scoop packages.

Month: 2026-01 — Focused on strengthening test reliability for astral-sh/uv by isolating test configuration. Implemented XDG_CONFIG_HOME isolation within with_real_home(), ensuring tests use a dedicated isolated config directory even when HOME must be real for macOS keychain access. This prevents user-level config files (e.g., .uv.toml, user .config files) from influencing test runs, reducing flaky failures and improving CI stability. All existing tests pass and the change provides a deterministic test environment across local and CI runs, enabling more confident releases.
