Jenkins pipeline job executing commands in tmp folder

I'm trying to run a simple pipeline script on my jenkins job

   pipeline {
    agent any
    stages {
        stage('Build') {
            steps {
                sh('emulator -list-avds')
            }
        }
    }

But it throws an error:

/Users/<my_username>/.jenkins/workspace/<my_job_name>@tmp/durable-22217e91/script.sh: line 1: emulator: command not found

My question is: why is it executing commands in the tmp folder? Anything "emulator" related does work when I run commands via terminal.

Following this answer, I've confirmed I'm in the correct dir Why Jenkins mounts a temporary volume in addition to the workspace?

You are getting this error because the emulator executable is not set in the PATH. Try something like the below.

Try setting your PATH variable to add emulator executable.

environment {
   PATH = "/PATH_EMULATOR/bin:${env.PATH}"
}

or something like the below.

  withEnv(["PATH+EMULATOR=/PATH_EMULATOR/bin"]) {
    sh('emulator -list-avds')
  }

or you can also use the full qualified path to the executable

sh('/PATH_TO_EMULATOR/bin/emulator -list-avds')
