+This package ships no native Windows binary: those builds are paused. On native
+Windows `npm install -g @crewkit/cli` still installs — and says so — but the CLI
+refuses to run and points you here. The Chocolatey package (`choco install
+crewkit`) is frozen at 0.4.1 and no longer follows releases. WSL is the better
+target anyway — background observation is Unix-only.
