Set PATHEXT in this subtest.
This subtest expects .exe, .CMD, and .bat to be executable, but it inherits the parent process PATHEXT. A Windows host that excludes one of these extensions makes the test fail despite correct implementation. Set the expected value before creating the fixtures.

ensureAtLeastDir compared a directory's mode bits against the required mode and rejected anything more permissive. Windows has no POSIX mode bits: Go ignores the mode passed to MkdirAll and reports every directory as 0777, so the check failed for every directory mcpd creates and the cache, execution context, and config export all broke on Windows. Move the comparison behind build tags. Unix keeps the existing check and error; Windows creates and validates the directory (non-symlink, is a directory) but does not inspect its mode, since access there is governed by the NTFS ACL inherited from the parent. Tests that assert exact mode bits, or deliberately create a too-open directory, cannot express their premise on Windows. A small permstest package provides the shared skip and mode-assertion helpers so each test package does not carry its own copy; the remaining tests still run and verify creation succeeds. Refs #218
The cache tests turned the returned file:// URL into a path by trimming
the scheme, which leaves a leading slash before a Windows drive letter
("/C:/...") and fails to open the file. Parse the URL and convert it
with the same helper the cache uses to build it.
* fix(files): discover plugin executables by extension on Windows DiscoverExecutablesWithPaths treated a file as executable only when an execute bit was set. Windows has no execute bit and Go reports every file as 0666, so no plugin was ever discovered there and configured plugins were reported as missing. Decide executability per platform behind build tags. Unix keeps the execute-bit check. Windows accepts a file whose extension is listed in PATHEXT (default .COM;.EXE;.BAT;.CMD), the same rule the shell and exec.LookPath apply, and registers it under its name without the extension so a plugin configured as "my-plugin" matches my-plugin.exe on disk. When several candidates share a name the PATHEXT order decides. A filestest package names executable fixtures portably so the existing discovery tests run unchanged on every platform. Fixes #313 * docs(plugins): describe how plugin executables are discovered on Windows The plugin directory section stated the execute-bit rule as universal. Document the Windows rule: extensions listed in PATHEXT are executable, the extension is stripped when matching the configured name, and PATHEXT order breaks ties.

Tests that assert exact mode bits use a newinternal/perms/permstesthelper package so they skip cleanly on Windows instead of each package carrying its own copy.file://by hand left/C:/....Plugin discovery on Windows is a separate bug with the same root cause and is fixed in a stacked PR against this branch (#313). Restoring official Windows support (CI runner, plugin transport verification, GoReleaser, bug template, docs) is split into #304, #305, #306, #307 and #308.

How to test
On Windows, macOS, or Linux:
On Windows the previously failing suites are
internal/files(theEnsureAtLeast*tests),internal/cache,internal/context,internal/runtime,internal/perms,cmd/config/exportand the root package. Mode-bit assertions report as skipped there, not failed. The plugin discovery tests still fail on Windows until the stacked PR for #313 lands; Linux and macOS are fully green.Checklist
