Rounded path perfectly aligned to the grid

Rounded path perfectly aligned to the grid

I'm designing icons in Figma and I would like to have rounded paths with stroke perfecty aligned to the grid.

I tried using 'corner radius' option, but it 'flattens' the corner:

I also tried modelling those curves manually, but I wasn't able to do this.

I wanted to achieve something like here, in Lucide Icons:

As you can see, the stroke is perfectly aligned with the grid in every corner. It looks like they used circles to build that shape. I know there is a shape builder tool, but I don't think it works with paths.

How did they do that? Is it possible in Figma?
