Code Review

This pull request adds support for detecting the Codex CLI on Windows when installed via Scoop. The changes add new search paths to getCodexCliPaths. My review identifies some redundant and likely incorrect paths that have been added. I've suggested their removal to improve correctness and maintainability.

[gemini-code-assist]

These paths seem redundant and likely incorrect. When using a Scoop-installed Node.js, global npm packages are typically placed in the bin subdirectory of the Node.js installation, which is already covered by lines 145-146. The executables are not expected to be in the root of the current directory. I recommend removing these two lines to avoid unnecessary checks and potential false positives.
