Docs: add non-Node repo quickstart for local Charter usage #185

@stackbilt-admin

Description

@stackbilt-admin

Summary

The install/usage path for non-Node repos is not obvious enough when teams only want Charter as local governance tooling.

What We Hit

In a C++ repo, we needed to determine:

  • npm package name: @stackbilt/cli
  • binary names: charter / stackbilt
  • a robust local invocation pattern that does not depend on global install

Requested Improvement

Please add a concise "non-Node repo" quickstart section to README/docs, for example:

npm install --save-dev @stackbilt/cli@<version>
npx --no-install @stackbilt/cli doctor --adf-only

And optionally include a fallback note for WSL DrvFs (--no-bin-links) linked from this quickstart.

Why this helps

This reduces onboarding ambiguity for repos where Node is not the primary build system but Charter is required for governance.
