 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [0.9.37] - 2026-06-22
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fixed MCP servers (e.g. `basecamp-mcp`) failing to start in the packaged
+  Electron desktop app with `Executable not found in $PATH: "npx"`. The
+  desktop bootstrap now augments the child process PATH with system
+  directories such as `/usr/local/bin`, `/opt/homebrew/bin`, `/etc/paths`,
+  `/usr/local/git/bin`, the latest nvm Node binary directory, and common
+  Windows Node/Git locations, so `npx`/`npm` are discoverable when the app
+  is launched from the GUI.
+- Switched `npx-resolver.ts` to use `cross-spawn` instead of
+  `node:child_process`, so `npm`/`npx` resolution works on Windows where
+  executables have a `.cmd` extension.
+
