missing root cause of error

[behrica]

I have devcontainer snippet like this:

"postStartCommand":  
  { 
    "poetry setup":  ["/bin/bash", "-i", "-c",  "python3 -m venv $HOME/.local && source $HOME/.local/bin/activate && poetry install"]
  }

and forgot to setup poetry, so it is not available. But the log does not show this, it does not show the root error message in this situation. (poetry: command not found) I took me while to figure this out.
