Adds a Libraries > @qawolf/cli reference subsection (commands, configuration, environment variables, exit codes, troubleshooting) and an Integrations > Local execution group with task-oriented pages for authenticating, running flows, pulling, installing dependencies, scaffolding a local-only project, and diagnosing problems. Refs WIZ-10629.
Match the precision used in the CLI README review: pulls happen only when the local .qawolf/<env>/ cache is missing the flows, and a fresh pull is opt-in via qawolf flows pull --env <env>.
- Parallel workers are now supported for web flows; Android still requires --workers 1 - Document the new --junit [path] flag and how it composites with console/JSON/agent output - Add a precompiled binary install path alongside npm - Rewrite the stale "workers capped at 1" troubleshooting entry to cover the Android constraint

| - `--har-content <mode>` — `omit` or `full`. `full` includes response bodies and uses more memory. Default: `omit`. | ||
| - `--output-dir <path>` — directory for artifacts. Default: `qawolf-output`. | ||
| - `--headed` — show the browser window instead of running headless. Default: `false`. | ||
| - `--env <env>` — environment ID. When set, missing flows are pulled before the run. |
|
|
||
| ## Capture artifacts on failure | ||
|
|
||
| By default, no video or trace is recorded. To keep artifacts only when a flow fails, set the mode to `retain-on-failure`: |
| qawolf flows run --env staging --video retain-on-failure --trace retain-on-failure | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Artifacts land in `qawolf-output/` (or the directory set by `--output-dir`). |

On my list to review in more details. Just wanted to note that we're aiming to make everything public by the end of next week (12th). So we will get these docs in after that. |
