Does not work on iOS with terminal emulation

Describe the bug

Netlify CLI installed with npm install -g netlify-cli but netlify command returns "command not found". Happens on iPhone using iSH app (Alpine Linux), where Node/npm install but global binaries not in PATH. Also occurs on occasional computers after global install – netlify login or netlify deploy fail with same error.

Typical errors: "netlify: command not found", EACCES permissions during global install, or iSH too slow/unresponsive for practical use. Goal is to deploy static/simple projects via CLI from terminal, but it doesn't work.

Steps to reproduce

No netlify.toml present because netlify init cannot be run successfully.

Example for basic static/SPA project if it worked:

[build]
publish = "build"
command = "npm run build" # or empty for pure static

[[redirects]]
from = "/*"
to = "/index.html"
status = 200

Configuration

No netlify.toml present because netlify init cannot be run successfully.

Example for basic static/SPA project if it worked:

[build]
publish = "build"
command = "npm run build" # or empty for pure static

[[redirects]]
from = "/*"
to = "/index.html"
status = 200

Environment

Cannot run full npx envinfo --system --binaries --npmPackages netlify-cli --npmGlobalPackages netlify-cli due to iPhone limitation (no stable full terminal; iSH PATH/global bins broken after install).

Partial info:

• OS: iOS / iPhone with iSH (Alpine Linux emulated)
• Node: v20+ (via apk add nodejs)
• npm: recent version
• netlify-cli: installed globally (~23.x), but not executable ("command not found")
• PATH issue: global npm bins not in shell PATH in iSH

Will add full envinfo output from computer if possible later.

No repository file, test, or entry point is identified in the report. Start by reproducing the global installation and PATH behavior on iSH and an affected computer, then determine a project-level change that addresses the reported command-not-found and permissions cases; done means the documented installation works or the unsupported environment is clearly identified.
