  • Yes, I used AI assistance (continue below)

If you used AI assistance:

  • I have reviewed every single line of the AI-generated code
  • I can explain the purpose and logic of each function/component I added

Explain your implementation approach:
This PR simply adds a Markdown section at the bottom of the Quickstart guide. Since it is a documentation update, no code logic or functions were added. I ensured the wording is extremely concise and actionable as requested by the issue, keeping the file clean and easy to scan.

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a three-item Troubleshooting section to the bottom of docs/quickstart.mdx, addressing Docker not running, missing make, and missing LLM provider configuration. The Docker and LLM tips are relevant to the quickstart flow; the make tip references a development-only toolchain that does not appear anywhere in the user-facing quickstart steps.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — documentation-only change with no code impact.

All findings are P2 style suggestions. The only concern is one troubleshooting bullet referencing make, which is not part of the quickstart user path, but this is a minor clarity issue that does not block the PR.

docs/quickstart.mdx — the make troubleshooting bullet could be clarified or removed.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
docs/quickstart.mdx Adds a Troubleshooting section with three bullets; the make bullet references a development-only tool not mentioned anywhere in the quickstart steps, which may confuse end users.

## Troubleshooting

P2 make tip not relevant to quickstart steps

The quickstart guide only uses opensre CLI commands — none of the steps invoke make. This bullet may confuse end users who followed the guide and wonder when they would have encountered a missing make error. The make toolchain is used for contributor/development workflows (e.g., make install, make test-cov), not the user-facing install path shown here. Consider either removing this bullet or scoping it to a developer/contributing guide instead.

Suggested change
- **`make` is missing**: Install it via your package manager (`brew install make` on macOS, `choco install make` on Windows).
- **`make` is missing**: Install it via your package manager (`brew install make` on macOS, `choco install make` on Windows). This is only needed for contributor/development workflows, not the standard quickstart.
