/plugin command fails to find git on Termux (Android)

/plugin command fails to find git on Termux (Android)

Description

When running /plugin (or /doctor) in Claude Code on Termux, it reports that git is not installed, even though git is installed and fully functional.

Environment

• Platform: Android (Termux)
• Shell: zsh
• Claude Code install method: npm (/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/claude)
• Git version: 2.53.0
• Git location: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/git

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install Termux on Android
2. Install git: pkg install git
3. Install Claude Code: npm install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code
4. Launch claude and run /plugin
5. Observe the error message stating git is not installed

Expected Behavior

Claude Code should detect git via $PATH resolution, which would find it at /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/git.

Actual Behavior

Claude Code reports that git is not installed and prompts to install it. Git works correctly for all other Claude Code operations (commits, diffs, repo detection, etc.) — only the /plugin command fails to find it.

Root Cause

Termux uses a non-standard filesystem layout. Binaries are installed under /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/ rather than the standard /usr/bin/ or /usr/local/bin/ paths. The /plugin command likely checks hardcoded paths or uses a detection method that doesn't respect $PATH.

Suggested Fix

Use which git, command -v git, or similar PATH-based resolution instead of checking hardcoded binary paths.
