Research direction

Start with docs/troubleshooting.md and compare the reported setup: Windows 10, VS Code 1.136.0, and PowerShell extension 2025.4.0. Reproduce the failure using the described VS Code and Telegram bot workflow, then collect the missing logs and a precise error message. Done means the startup failure has an actionable reproduction or is shown not to be caused by the extension.
