Plan 9 has never compiled and is not a release or CI target. Reviews still asked for plan9 shims. Document the five release platforms as the supported set so unsupported GOOS is not a review criterion. Fixes Gitlawb#817

Approving. Docs-only, and the five named targets match what the code actually supports.
Worth knowing: this PR's CI had never run. Its checks were held at action_required behind the fork gate, so the single green check was CodeRabbit rather than the suite. I released it and all seven checks pass.

I found issues that need to be addressed before this is ready.
Merge readiness
- [P1] Rebase onto current
mainbefore merge
AGENTS.md:76-78
The PR still merges from27b319c, while livemainis1b5db17and has two newer commits. There is no current file overlap, but the repository treats a stale head as a hard blocker; rebase and have the resolved head reviewed.

[P2] Keep Android within the reviewable support policy
CONTRIBUTING.md:141-143
The policy equates the five native release artifact names with the complete support set, then tells reviewers not to consider every otherGOOS/GOARCH. That is not true for Android:docs/INSTALL.mddocuments a native Termux path that specifically requiresGOOS=android GOARCH=arm64, andscripts/postinstall.mjsdeliberately maps Android to the Linux release artifact. In other words, Android has no distinctandroid-arm64artifact, but it is still an intentionally supported runtime/install path. The new wording would make Android-specific failures—such as the documented Android syscall workaround—non-actionable in review.Please separate “native prebuilt release artifacts” from the broader set of supported runtime/install paths. Keep the five-artifact list and the Plan 9 exclusion, but explicitly retain Android/Termux as a supported mapping (or limit the non-reviewable statement to targets with neither a supported source-install path nor a supported artifact fallback). If maintainers instead intend to drop Android, make that an explicit product decision and remove or update its installation and wrapper support together; do not silently do so through reviewer guidance.

[P3] Correct the PowerShell installer claim
CONTRIBUTING.md:131-133
The release workflow publisheswindows-x64only, butscripts/install.ps1treatsArm64as an accepted architecture and constructszero-v<version>-windows-arm64.zip. That asset does not exist, so a native Windows-on-ARM installation follows an accepted code path to a 404. The npm installer already handles the equivalent case explicitly: it skipswindows-arm64and tells users to use the x64 build under emulation or build from source. Saying thatinstall.ps1resolves the same five targets therefore publishes an incorrect contract and conceals the unsupported-path failure.Address the root mismatch in one place: either make
install.ps1reject or provide the same clear x64-emulation/source-build fallback for ARM64 before constructing the download URL, then document that behavior; or removeinstall.ps1from the assertion and describe the list strictly as the five release artifacts. Do not imply Windows ARM64 is a supported native artifact unless the release workflow and checks actually add one.
Fixes #817
Implements option 1 from the issue: document the supported targets as the five
release platforms and state that other GOOS values are unsupported and not a
review criterion.
What changed
CONTRIBUTING.md: new Supported platforms section naming the five releasetargets (
linux-x64,linux-arm64,macos-arm64,macos-x64,windows-x64) and stating that other GOOS/GOARCH values, including Plan 9,are not a review criterion.
AGENTS.md: pointer under Common Review Blockers so reviewers stop askingfor Plan 9 compilation.
.coderabbit.yaml: path instruction for Go files not to request Plan 9 /unsupported GOOS shims.
No code behavior change.
retry_dialerrno_plan9.gofrom #750 is left in place; dropping thatdead shim is a maintainer call (option 3 in the issue).
Test plan
Documentation only.
