Conversation
On Windows, Python defaults to cp1252 (charmap) encoding for subprocess pipes and text=True mode. This causes Unicode characters (emoji, em-dash, etc.) to be garbled when passed between agents or posted via tools. Changes: - script.py: Set PYTHONUTF8=1 in subprocess environment so child Python processes use UTF-8 instead of system default encoding - update.py: Add encoding='utf-8' to subprocess.run call - mcp_auth.py: Add encoding='utf-8' to subprocess.run call Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Summary
Fixes #89 — Unicode characters (emoji, em-dash, etc.) are garbled on Windows when passed between agents or posted via tools.
Root Cause
Python defaults to cp1252 (charmap) encoding on Windows for subprocess pipes and text=True mode. This mangles non-ASCII characters in script output and subprocess calls.
Changes
Testing
All 75 existing tests pass. Lint clean.
