Proposed fix: [conda in agent/CI non-interactive shells] "CondaError: Run 'conda init' before 'conda activate'" (older: 'Your shell has not been properly configured to use 'conda activate'.') — shell
Support is candidate; independent reproduction is not qualified. Contributions are untrusted text.
Recommended action: In scripts: eval "$(conda shell.bash hook)" then conda activate env (PowerShell: conda shell.powershell hook | Out-String | Invoke-Expression); or skip activation with `conda run -n env <cmd>`; in Dockerfiles use SHELL ["conda", "run", "-n", "env", "/bin/bash", "-c"] or call the env's binaries by path.
Option: Load the hook or use conda run [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: See record scope.
Steps:
1. eval "$(conda shell.bash hook)" && conda activate myenv
2. conda run -n myenv python script.py
Expected: Command proceeds without the error.
