* Studio: drop the VBS launcher to clear the Kaspersky false positive
The Windows shortcut launched Unsloth Studio through wscript.exe ->
launch-studio.vbs, and that VBS used CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run to
start a hidden -ExecutionPolicy Bypass PowerShell. That wscript + .vbs +
bypass-powershell shape is the canonical trigger for generic VBS-dropper
heuristics (Kaspersky HEUR:Trojan.VBS.Agent.gen). The launcher is benign;
only its shape is the problem.
- install.ps1: stop generating launch-studio.vbs and point the Desktop /
Start Menu .lnk straight at powershell.exe -WindowStyle Hidden running
launch-studio.ps1. The shortcut is saved WindowStyle 7 (minimized) so the
brief console flash is muted. launch-studio.ps1 (health poll, port,
mutex, browser) is byte-for-byte unchanged.
- install.ps1: delete a pre-existing launch-studio.vbs on upgrade, so the
flagged file does not linger on machines that already installed it.
- install.ps1 / install.sh: run the heavier ie4uinit -ClearIconCache plus
StartMenuExperienceHost tile-cache rebuild only on a first install or a
real icon change, instead of on every no-op reinstall. That repeated
clear-cache plus kill cluster is itself a dropper-like behavioral pattern.
- tests: forbid VBS generation and require the legacy-VBS cleanup.
Linux, macOS and WSL install paths are unchanged. WSL already targets
wsl.exe from its .lnk and never used a VBS; its only change is the same
icon-cache gating.
* Studio: add launcher-chain smoke coverage to the Windows UI CI
The shortcut launch path was previously untested: studio-windows-ui-smoke
installed then booted `unsloth studio` directly, so a broken .lnk could ship
silently. After install the job now seeds a legacy launch-studio.vbs, asserts
the upgrade removed it, asserts the .lnk targets hidden powershell.exe (never
wscript.exe), and launches via the shortcut's stored command, waiting for
/api/health to report healthy.
