Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows instructions, tools, and examples (especially PowerShell) are presented first and in greater detail, with more explicit step-by-step guidance. PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-specific paths/tools are emphasized throughout, while Linux equivalents are sometimes less detailed or omitted. Some advanced scenarios, such as using credential assets for Hybrid Worker credentials, are only supported or documented for Windows. Example scripts and code samples are almost exclusively PowerShell/Windows-centric, with minimal or no Bash/Linux scripting shown for equivalent tasks.
Recommendations:
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions/examples in parallel or in separate, equally detailed sections, rather than always listing Windows first.
  • Provide Bash or Python script examples for Linux wherever PowerShell examples are given for Windows (e.g., starting a runbook, managing credentials, signing runbooks).
  • Where features are Windows-only (such as Hybrid Worker credentials), explicitly state this early and suggest Linux alternatives or workarounds if possible.
  • Add more detailed Linux-specific troubleshooting, configuration, and environment setup steps, matching the granularity given for Windows.
  • Reference Linux tools and patterns (e.g., systemd, log locations, environment variable management) as prominently as Windows tools.
  • Where PowerShell is used cross-platform, clarify how to install and use it on Linux, and provide Linux-specific code samples (e.g., file paths, environment variables).
