Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
powershell_heavy
missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation provides only a PowerShell example for consuming exported key-values, with no equivalent example for Bash or other Linux/macOS shells. This creates friction for users running pipelines on Linux or macOS agents, as they must infer how to access environment variables in their platform's scripting language.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash and/or sh examples alongside the PowerShell example to demonstrate how Linux/macOS users can access pipeline variables (e.g., echo "$myBuildSetting").
  • Explicitly mention that environment variables are available in all supported agent platforms and provide cross-platform guidance.
  • Review other sections for any implicit Windows-first assumptions and clarify when instructions are platform-agnostic.
