Summary
patchwardenbinary is onPATH.patchwarden/task artifacts as installation evidenceWhy
PatchWarden is installed as an npm CLI, but its executable starts an MCP stdio
server rather than behaving like a conventional
--versioncommand. Detectorversion probing must therefore use static package metadata and return
unknownwhen metadata is unavailable.
The detector is deliberately binary-first. A repository can retain a
.patchwarden/directory after the CLI has been removed, so project artifactsalone are not reliable installation evidence.

metadata without process execution, and stale project artifacts.
