Research direction

The issue body names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the extension's handling of attempts to install packages globally and its existing virtual-environment creation flow; clarify the expected prompt and behavior before implementation. Done means users are clearly shown how to create a venv when this situation occurs, with coverage for the relevant flow.
