Is there a way to get the path to an installed binary that Pants manages as a tool? I'm curious if there's a shortcut I could take to getting

buf

to perform a breaking-changes check on our protobufs short of diving into Pants code to implement it, maybe via

experimental_shell_command

?

I don't think there's an easy way, because

buf

is only downloaded on demand, so you need to fetch it with something like

downloaded_buf = await Get(
        DownloadedExternalTool, ExternalToolRequest, buf.get_request(Platform.current)
    )

Ah, yeah, that makes sense.
