- CR-001: replace npm unlink -g with npm uninstall -g (correct command) - CR-002: add VS Code collision warning to Option 2 alias suggestion - CR-003: correct claim that npm update -g removes stale bin symlinks Generated with AI Co-Authored-By: codemie-ai <codemie.ai@gmail.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_014NeZZse4iQvowT8MfFdwkt
