Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by using PowerShell-style variable assignment (e.g., $VAR = ...) and line continuation (backtick `), which are not compatible with Linux/macOS shells. All CLI examples assume a Windows/PowerShell environment, with no equivalent Bash or cross-platform examples provided. This may confuse or hinder Linux/macOS users attempting to follow the guide.
Recommendations:
  • Provide parallel Bash (Linux/macOS) examples for all CLI commands, using appropriate syntax (e.g., VAR=..., line continuation with \).
  • Clearly indicate which examples are for PowerShell/Windows and which are for Bash/Linux/macOS.
  • Consider using cross-platform compatible syntax where possible, or at least link to a section explaining the differences.
  • Add a note at the top of the page clarifying the shell environment assumed, and direct users to the appropriate examples for their OS.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific command constructs (like Write-Output, backtick for line continuation) without Linux equivalents.
