6 * Automatically detects platform (macOS, Linux glibc/musl, Windows) and architecture (arm64, x64).

7 * 1. Resolves and executes the precompiled platform binary from optionalDependencies (0ms startup, zero network).

8 * 2. If running from local source, finds local dist/bin or compiles on the fly if Bun is present.

9 * 3. If installed with --no-optional, falls back to downloading the standalone binary to ~/.pikaa/bin/.
