Hmph ... how are you starting the server exactly?

I now notice that you're running on OS X ... what version of that?
Do you have SIP enabled?  SIP has been known to break stuff like
this; in particular I'm thinking of its habit of silently suppressing
key environment variables like DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH at inopportune times.
If your setup is such that your psql needs that set to start correctly,
that could be a place to look for an explanation.

A related thought is that maybe PATH in the server is different from
what you have interactively, so that it's not finding psql, or finding
the wrong copy.  Specifying a full path to psql in the invoked script
would help narrow that down.
