Setting up a clean repo-based environment

Keep your dependable package-installed setup intact, create a separate checkout for repo work, and verify which CLI and gateway you are actually using.

GoalMake the repo run without making the environment ambiguous.
Basic flow

Use a clean setup sequence

  1. Clone the repo intentionally
  2. Install dependencies
  3. Build the checkout
  4. Choose repo-local invocation or a global link intentionally
  5. Verify the gateway state, not just the CLI path
