Summary

  • Adds docs/usage/windows_usage.md for Windows users running commands from a PowerShell host (Windows PowerShell 5.1 or PowerShell 7+), translating the README quick-start and run_mode.md examples to PowerShell syntax:
    • backtick line continuation instead of Bash's \
    • ${PWD} / $HOME path interpolation
    • mounting the current directory to a plain Linux-side path (/workspace) instead of mirroring the Windows path inside the container, which is legal but awkward
    • a note on --network host requiring Docker Desktop 4.34+ with host networking enabled, plus the host.docker.internal fallback
  • This is a different topic from the existing powershell_usage.md, which covers using pwsh inside the container — the two docs now cross-link so readers land on the right one.
  • Linked from docs/usage/README.md and from the main README's Getting Started section (with a note that the existing examples are Bash-only).

Test plan

  • Docs-only change, no build/CI impact — just a readthrough of the rendered pages and a manual spot-check of the PowerShell commands.

All examples elsewhere in the repo are written for a Bash host shell.
Add docs/usage/windows_usage.md translating the README quick-start
and run_mode.md examples to PowerShell syntax (backtick line
continuation, ${PWD}/$HOME path interpolation, mounting the current
directory to a plain Linux path like /workspace instead of mirroring
the Windows path inside the container).

This is a different topic from the existing powershell_usage.md,
which covers using pwsh *inside* the container - both docs now
cross-link to avoid confusing the two. Linked from docs/usage/README.md
and from the README's Getting Started section.
