**Prerequisites:** Python 3.12+, ~2 GB free disk space, internet connection for the initial `pip install` and the Ollama model download.

**End state after step 01:** A runnable PKV-analysis Crew with two agents, executing locally via Ollama and producing a structured Markdown report.

**Runnable examples:** Every code snippet in this Quickstart also lives as a standalone Python project under [`examples/quickstart/`](../../examples/quickstart/) in the repo — each with a `test_example.py` that CI smoke-tests on every PR.
