Embed standalone Python in CLIP instead of relocatable venv#30
Conversation
Replace `uv venv --relocatable` with copying the full standalone Python (python-build-standalone via uv) into CLIP directories. This eliminates the dependency on the base Python installation path via pyvenv.cfg, making CLIPs truly portable to target machines without Python installed.

Run a quick check that the copied python.exe actually works before proceeding with pip install. Gives a clear error if the copy is broken (e.g. due to antivirus interference or stale state). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Python 3.14+ can fail with "failed to locate pyvenv.cfg" (exit 106) when running a copied standalone interpreter. Creating a python314._pth file puts Python in isolated path mode, bypassing venv detection entirely while correctly setting up stdlib paths. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…bility Python 3.14+ requires pyvenv.cfg to exist (exit 106 without it). The ._pth file uses isolated path mode to skip site.py, avoiding RuntimeWarnings about unexpected sys.prefix. The ._pth file now lists Lib\site-packages explicitly instead of using import site. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The pyvenv.cfg needs home= to avoid warnings from Python's path initialization. The ._pth file (without import site) prevents site.py RuntimeWarnings about unexpected sys.prefix. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Parameterize CLIP and uv_util tests across all supported Python versions via SUPPORTED_PYTHON_VERSIONS constant, and add CI matrix for 3.11/3.12/3.13. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Pass Path(self.project_dir, self.dist_dir) instead of the bare relative self.dist_dir so uv build writes the wheel and the subsequent glob both resolve to the same absolute path under the target project directory. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Generate make_venv.bat on Windows, make_venv.sh (chmod 755) on Linux/Mac.
Linux script uses python{major.minor} and venv/bin/ paths.
