Hi, before propose a PR I opened an issue (<https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/9290>), any advise about it ?

I'm felling dumb to not thinking myself to -m :joy:

In general it’s not safe to just call into a venv like that. It’s fine if you’re calling `python` (as you noted in the docs) but calling into other libraries can encounter problems like this.

I’d recommend at least putting the `bin/` in your `PATH` but I’m down to improve our behavior here as well

that's sound bad, in the future I'll not understand where the binaries will come from :sweat_smile:

&gt; Furthermore, all scripts installed in the environment should be runnable without activating it.

fro what I understood it's definitively safe for python, and should be safe (handled by the third party scripts devs) for scripts

Wouldn’t you just put it in the PATH for that single call?

I think “should be” can be pretty far from reality :slightly_smiling_face: but yeah I agree it should be fixed
