DocFetch CLI v2.0.5 - Windows Binary Fix

🐛 CRITICAL FIX

Problem: Windows users got 'No compatible binary found' error during npm install.

Root Cause: .npmignore was excluding platform binaries instead of including them.

Solution: Updated .npmignore to explicitly include all platform binaries.

📦 Included Binaries

Platform	Architecture	Size	File
Windows	AMD64	8.8MB	doc-fetch_windows_amd64.exe
Linux	AMD64	8.8MB	doc-fetch_linux_amd64
macOS	Intel (x64)	8.9MB	doc-fetch_darwin_amd64
macOS	Apple Silicon (ARM)	8.4MB	doc-fetch_darwin_arm64

✅ Installation

npm install -g doc-fetch-cli

Should now work on all platforms without errors!

🚀 Usage

# Fetch documentation
doc-fetch --url https://docs.example.com --output docs.md

# Generate AI-friendly index
doc-fetch --url https://docs.example.com --llm-txt

📝 Changelog

• Fixed .npmignore to include platform binaries [@AlphaTechini]
