Summary

  • Adds a note below install instructions on both the landing page and documentation page
  • On macOS, Stata/SAS/Julia launch non-interactive shells that don't load ~/.zshrc, so uv tool install-ed commands aren't found
  • Note points users to the full path: ~/.local/bin/policyengine-taxsim

Context

A user installed successfully via uv tool install but got zsh:1: command not found: policyengine-taxsim when running from Stata's shell command.

Test plan

  • Verify note renders correctly on landing page
  • Verify note renders correctly on documentation page

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

On macOS, Stata/SAS launch non-interactive shells that don't
load ~/.zshrc, so uv-installed tools aren't on the PATH.
Add a note pointing users to the full path ~/.local/bin/policyengine-taxsim.

Show note only for Stata/SAS/Julia tabs and use direct documentation
tone: "Replace X with Y if the command is not found."

Replace macOS-specific ~/.local/bin path with universal instructions:
run `uv tool dir --bin` to find the correct path on any OS.
