Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
powershell_heavy
missing_linux_example
Summary
The documentation provides a PowerShell example for consuming exported environment variables but does not include equivalent examples for Linux shells (e.g., Bash). There are no explicit references to Windows-only tools or patterns, but the lack of Linux/Unix shell examples may create a perception of Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Bash (and/or other popular Linux shell) examples alongside the PowerShell example for accessing environment variables in pipeline tasks.
  • Explicitly mention that the exported variables are accessible in all supported agent operating systems and provide cross-platform usage guidance.
  • Review screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not specific to Windows environments, or clarify when instructions are OS-agnostic.
