Summary

Keep the candidate's rstack install smoke on the generation it just installed. Bootstrap receives custom executable and storage directories, but later commands previously fell back to the runner's home directory. Reuse one explicit-root command array for the launcher version, both installed-component queries, and both product version checks.

Evidence

• The failed candidate job completed bootstrap before the post-install smoke failed. The executing regression reproduces the first component query's false result without the overrides.
• The corrected real workflow fragment passes with an isolated home directory and paths containing spaces. It preserves the symlink, single-entry, component and version assertions, and verifies all five exact argument lists with clean output.
• uv run --with PyYAML==6.0.2 python3 -m unittest release/scripts/test_release_workflow_structure.py: all 93 tests passed.
• Actionlint 1.7.12, ShellCheck of the full rendered smoke, system Bash syntax, formatting of the new command array, diff checks and redacted Gitleaks passed. Full-step shfmt still reports existing condition, redirection and pipeline formatting outside the new array.
• Release planner: all 13 checks passed. Source-model proof reports a clean checkout. Independent review found no material blocker.

Notes

The owning CLI and README already require explicit roots on later commands after a custom-path installation. No runtime, product, documentation, image recipe or advisory change is needed. All existing smoke and publication controls remain enforced. A fresh protected-main candidate and matching identifier publisher pin are still required before v0.44.0 publication.
