Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows environments, with all examples and instructions using PowerShell and Windows file paths (e.g., D:\examplefiles). There are no Linux or macOS equivalents provided for file creation, folder paths, or runbook worker setup. The only tooling mentioned is PowerShell, and the Hybrid Runbook Worker is implicitly assumed to be Windows-based. This creates friction for users operating on Linux/macOS hybrid workers.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/macOS examples for file creation (e.g., using Bash: touch /home/examplefiles/ExampleFile1.txt).
- Clarify whether Hybrid Runbook Workers can run on Linux, and if so, include setup instructions and examples.
- Show Linux-style file paths in parameter examples (e.g., /home/examplefiles).
- Mention and demonstrate how to trigger watcher tasks using Bash or other Linux-native tools if supported.
- Explicitly state any platform limitations for watcher tasks and runbooks.
