Summary

Removes two avoidable high-friction installation suggestions from the docs and points users toward safer user-local installation paths.

Changes

  • remove the Linux curl | bash Node.js example from README.md
  • update uipath-maestro-case planning guidance to prefer user-local npm installation methods instead of suggesting sudo npm install -g

Why

These changes keep the docs aligned with safer default installation guidance without changing product behavior.
