[BUG][CLI does not find env]
enhancementhelp wantedgood first issue
## Description
The Swarms CLI does not reliably locate or load the `.env` file, causing commands to fail silently when API keys and environment variables are not picked up.
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Create a `.env` file in the project root with valid API keys (e.g. `OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...`)
2. Run any CLI command: `swarms agent --task "hello"`
3. The CLI proceeds as if no API keys are set, or raises an API key error
## Expected Behavior
The CLI should automatically discover and load `.env` from the current working directory (or the user's home directory as a fallback) before executing any command.
## Actual Behavior
API keys defined in `.env` are not loaded. Commands either fail with an API key error or the `setup-check` command reports no active provider.
## Environment
- OS: macOS / Linux
- Python version: 3.10+
- Swarms version: `swarms --version`
## Root Cause (suspected)
`load_swarms_env()` is called at module import time in `swarms/cli/main.py`, but if the working directory at import time differs from where the `.env` lives, the file is not found. Additionally, `python-dotenv` is not explicitly searching parent directories.
## Suggested Fix
- Use `find_dotenv()` from `python-dotenv` to search parent directories
- Or explicitly resolve the `.env` path relative to `Path.cwd()` and fall back to `Path.home()`
## Additional Context
Running `swarms setup-check` should display a clear error when `.env` is missing or empty rather than silently continuing with no keys loaded.
