Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. PowerShell is the only command-line tool provided for managing agentless dependency analysis, with no Linux shell or cross-platform CLI alternatives. Windows-centric tools and patterns (such as PowerShell modules and cmdlets) are referenced exclusively for enabling/disabling features and exporting data. Instructions for credential requirements and permissions mention Windows accounts before Linux equivalents, and the overall flow assumes familiarity with Windows administration. There are no Linux shell (bash/ssh) examples, nor guidance for Linux-native management approaches.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash/ssh) command examples for managing agentless dependency analysis, including enabling/disabling features and exporting data.
  • Document cross-platform CLI alternatives (such as Azure CLI or REST API) for all PowerShell-based operations.
  • Present credential and permission requirements for Windows and Linux servers in parallel, rather than listing Windows first.
  • Include guidance for Linux administrators, such as using sudo, SSH keys, and Linux-native automation tools.
  • Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which require platform-specific tooling, ensuring Linux parity throughout.
