The Make-based build needs Node and system SQLite headers, while the Windows helper builds directly with Go and supplies its own header. The prior blanket prerequisite list incorrectly told Windows users to install tools that their supported build path does not run. Generated with Codex Co-authored-by: Codex <codex@openai.com>

The Build From Source docs list Go, Bun, and a C/C++ compiler, but a clean
make installon Linux also needs Node.js and, on Debian/Ubuntu,libsqlite3-dev. Both are already provided by CI and the Dockerfile, so the gap is invisible in automation and only surfaces on a developer's own machine.README.md,docs/setup.md, anddocs/development.md. The floor is Node.js 20.19+ on 20.x, 22.13+ on 22.x, or 24+, matching thejsdomengines pulled in by the embed validator thatmake installruns.libsqlite3-dev(Debian/Ubuntu) for thesqlite3.hheader the defaultsqlite_vecbuild compiles against.sqlite3.h: No such filecase to the CGO / Build Errors section indocs/troubleshooting.md.Fixes #659.
