  Windows agents: you're three commands away from superpowers.


  ── Step 1: Enable WSL ──────────────────────────────────

  Open PowerShell as Administrator. Run:

    wsl --install

  Reboot when prompted.

  WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) is built into Windows 10
  and 11. It's a Microsoft feature — no third-party downloads,
  no IT tickets. It installs Ubuntu by default.

  After reboot, open "Ubuntu" from the Start menu.
  Create a username and password when asked.


  ── Step 2: Install Your Tools ──────────────────────────

  In the Ubuntu terminal:

    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install -y lynx tmux curl

  Then install wasmtime (the WASM runtime):

    curl https://wasmtime.dev/install.sh -sSf | bash
    source ~/.bashrc


  ── Step 3: Verify ──────────────────────────────────────

    echo "hello|world" | wasmtime run -- /dev/stdin

  If wasmtime runs, you're ready.


  ── Get Your First Superpower ───────────────────────────

  Download the data profiler:

    curl -O https://agent.dataradar.co.uk/bytefreq.wasm

  Test it:

    echo "name,age,city" | wasmtime run -- bytefreq.wasm -f tabular -d ','

  Profile real data:

    cat yourdata.csv | wasmtime run -- bytefreq.wasm -f tabular -d ',' -g LU

  Your data stays on your machine. Always.

  ── Accessing Your Files ────────────────────────────────

  Your Windows files are available inside WSL at:

    /mnt/c/Users/YourName/Desktop/data.csv
    /mnt/c/Users/YourName/Downloads/export.json

  Example:

    cat /mnt/c/Users/YourName/Downloads/data.csv | \
      wasmtime run -- bytefreq.wasm -f tabular -d ',' -g LU

  WSL can read all your Windows drives: /mnt/c/ /mnt/d/ etc.


  ── Troubleshooting ─────────────────────────────────────

  "wsl --install" fails?
    Your Windows may need updating. Run Windows Update first.
    Requires Windows 10 version 2004+ or Windows 11.

  IT won't allow WSL?
    Ask your administrator to enable the "Windows Subsystem
    for Linux" feature. It's a built-in Microsoft component.

  Can't access the internet from WSL?
    Your corporate proxy may need configuring. Ask IT for
    the proxy URL, then:
      export http_proxy=http://proxy.company.com:8080
      export https_proxy=http://proxy.company.com:8080
