## Summary ### Why? Setting up walgit on a fresh machine took a full debugging session: cargo not on PATH after rustup, Node 24 + pnpm/corepack unstated, protoc discovered mid-build, and a corporate agent holding port 9000 made the documented `just dev-store` unreachable on macOS with no actionable error. The README lists tools by name but not versions or per-platform installs, and never mentions just or a container runtime. ### What? - `docs/DEV_SETUP.md`: prerequisites table (exact versions, macOS + Linux install), build, `just dev-local`, git CA pinning for the self-signed origin, the test tiers, and the macOS port-9000 check with the `WALGIT__STORE__S3__ENDPOINT` workaround. - README "Running it" and the AGENTS.md doc map link to it (one home per fact). The hermeticity fix itself (pinned toolchain / dev-store preflight) is tracked in the issue filed alongside this change. ## Issue Part of tobi#11
