Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with tools/OpenConsole.psm1 and the Set-MsBuildDevEnvironment and Invoke-OpenConsoleBuild entry points shown in the report. Reproduce the documented build from the reported Windows path, then inspect how dep/nuget/nuget.exe and OpenConsole.sln are resolved. Done means the documented build completes without the missing executable or project-file errors.
