Research direction

Start with the deployment flow for shinyapps.io, focusing on the package-installation step and the build log showing “Quarto not found” and status 599. Try to reproduce the intermittent first deployment failure and compare successful and failed logs; done means the failure is explained and the deployment completes reliably or reports a specific actionable error.
