Installation
Download faces-h-setup-*.exe and run it. No additional software required.

Note: This release is not yet code-signed. Windows SmartScreen may warn on first run — click "More info → Run anyway".
Post-install verification
Run the bundled smoke test against the running sidecar:
python scripts/smoke_test.py
