Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
Summary
The documentation consistently references Windows Command Shell (cmd.exe) in every example tip, instructing users to use double quotes on Windows and single quotes elsewhere. Windows-specific instructions are always mentioned first, and there are no Linux-specific command examples or shell-specific notes (e.g., bash, zsh). No PowerShell-specific commands or Windows-only tools are present, but the pattern of mentioning Windows first and not providing explicit Linux shell examples indicates a subtle Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of shell instructions so that Linux/macOS shells (bash, zsh) are mentioned first in some sections.
  • Explicitly provide example commands for Linux/macOS shells, including notes about escaping, quoting, and environment variable usage.
  • Add a section or table summarizing quoting and escaping differences across common shells (bash, zsh, PowerShell, cmd.exe).
  • Include troubleshooting tips for Linux/macOS environments (e.g., permissions, path formats) where relevant.
  • Use inclusive language such as 'on Linux/macOS, use single quotes; on Windows cmd.exe, use double quotes' rather than always leading with Windows.
