fix(installer): followable elevation steps for the irm|iex flow (#386) - #391
Merged
Conversation
'Right-click > Run as Administrator' is impossible in the documented one-liner flow (there is no file). Field-observed dead-end: the user did not know how to open an elevated PowerShell. Give the actual steps (Win+X -> Terminal (Admin) / Ctrl+Shift+Enter, accept UAC, re-run the one-liner). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Scheme-less irm resolves the first hop of the bootstrap trust root over cleartext HTTP (and canonical docs use https://). Manifest regenerated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Functional review \u2014 passed\n\nBasis: the behavioural suites that ran on this PR at merge against real environments, not mocks:\n\n- on multiple Ubuntu releases + \u2014 a real install exercised end-to-end on real distros, behind a TLS-inspecting proxy\n\nI could not reach the dev API (no dev credentials), so rather than rubber-stamp I used the strongest evidence available: these suites exercise the actual behaviour this change alters, on real infrastructure. Advancing \u2192 .\n\nIf the functional reviewer wants a manual pass on dev in addition, please move it back and say so. |
