Observed error: failed to start codex app-server: 系统找不到指定的路径。 (os error 3)

TL;DR

The issue with external navigation through the IAB backend in @browser-use on Windows may be related to a configuration or compatibility problem.

Guidance

• Verify that the codex app-server is properly configured and running before attempting to navigate to an external URL with tab.goto(...).
• Check the system's PATH environment variable to ensure it includes the necessary directories for the codex app-server to function correctly.
• Investigate potential compatibility issues between the @browser-use library and the IAB backend on Windows.
• Review the documentation for setupAtlasRuntime({ backend: "iab" }) to ensure it is being used correctly.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue does not contain sufficient information to create a relevant example.

Notes

The error message "系统找不到指定的路径。 (os error 3)" suggests a system-level issue, potentially related to the PATH environment variable or file system configuration.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Investigate and resolve any system configuration issues, such as updating the PATH environment variable, to ensure the codex app-server can start correctly.
