What's Wrong?

When I run npm install @anthropic-ai/claude-code to update to the latest version, @anthropic-ai/claude-code/bin/claude.exe gets installed. In a WSL1 environment, claude.exe cannot be launched.

Up to version 2.1.112, the Linux version of claude was installed correctly.

What Should Happen?

The Linux version of claude is installed
