stm32cubeclt prepending itself to path when vs code is opened

[obj87]

Good afternoon,

I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 and whenever I start vs code while stm32cubeclt is installed then my path is filled with paths to stm32cubeclt and it's different tools. I don't have any ST related extensions.

- How do I stop stm32cubeclt from prepending my path with itself?
- When does this happen?
- Is it only with vs code or other software as well?
- Is there any other solution which allows programming stm32 MCU's using cli?

If this is intended behaviour I hope it will be changed in the future. I don't know how to remove it because whenever I start vs code again it's back and I have no idea where it's being set since I can't find it in any typical configuration file like .bashrc, .profile or similar. I don't know what to do except changing all my other settings or remove cubeclt altogether.

Hello  @obj87, 

Try starting other software that uses the CLI (like a terminal) and check if the PATH is modified. If it’s only happening with VS Code, then it’s confirmed that it's related to VS Code’s configuration or extensions

>>Is there any other solution which allows programming stm32 MCU's using cli?

Yes, using OpenOCD or stlink
