* fix(terminal): give plain fish tabs Orca's codex function without changing fish's startup A `codex` typed into a plain fish tab ran without --no-daemon because only wrapped fish tabs (startup command / ready marker) got Orca's codex function. Plain fish spawns now prepend an Orca data dir to XDG_DATA_DIRS and record the exact prefix in ORCA_FISH_XDG_DATA_DIRS_PREFIX. Fish sources the dir's fish/vendor_conf.d snippet, which first restores XDG_DATA_DIRS (unset again if it was unset), erases the marker, drops its dir from fish's derived vendor/function/ completion paths, then defines the shared fish codex function at the first prompt so the user's config.fish still wins. fish argv is unchanged; wrapped tabs keep their existing -C path. A local fallback to another shell restores the user's XDG_DATA_DIRS instead of deleting it. Bumps the terminal daemon protocol to v39 so new tabs move to a daemon that injects the env; v38 owners stay attachable.

Both now launch untouched. Run the real-fish handoff tests in the shell contracts job, where fish is required, so they no longer skip in CI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * test(fish): compare the unset-restore case against a fish without Orca Ubuntu runners ship snapd's fish vendor snippet, which sets XDG_DATA_DIRS on every fish start, so "unset" was never the right oracle there. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(fish): treat an empty XDG_DATA_DIRS like unset so the tab still gets the codex hook Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(pty): put back the user's own launch env on a shell fallback The primary shell's launch config now records the pre-launch value of each key it writes. A fallback shell restores those values (unsetting keys that had none) instead of deleting the keys, which hands back an inherited XDG_DATA_DIRS after a fish fallback and an inherited ZDOTDIR after a zsh->bash fallback, with no per-shell special case. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(fish): drop the Node restore twin and simplify the vendor snippet - Remove restoreFishXdgDataDirs; the generic fallback restore covers it. - Snippet: read ":$XDG_DATA_DIRS:" directly and filter Orca's vendor dirs with one string match per variable. - Require inheritedXdgDataDirs in both getShellLaunchConfig option shapes. - Drop the test-only FISH_XDG_DATA_DIRS_HANDOFF_DAEMON_PROTOCOL_VERSION. - Fix stale fish comments and trim redundant -N launch cases. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * refactor(fish): stop scrubbing fish's lookup paths after the handoff Only XDG_DATA_DIRS is restored, by exact prefix; Orca's dir holds nothing but this snippet, so leaving it on fish's derived paths loads nothing else and drops the glob match. * docs(fish): drop the comment for the removed vendor-dir cleanup --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
