+\noindent To ensure all lab members have consistent development environments,
+we provide an automated setup script. The script installs standard applications
+and creates a Python environment with all necessary packages for lab research.
+
+\marginnote{\texttt{TASK:} Run the CDL setup script on your computer
+  by following the instructions below. Verify that all installations
+  complete successfully.}
+
+\textbf{To run the setup script:}
+
+\textit{On macOS or Linux:}
+\begin{verbatim}
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/
+  ContextLab/lab-manual/master/scripts/setup.sh | bash
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\textit{On Windows (PowerShell as Administrator):}
+\begin{verbatim}
+irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ContextLab/
+  lab-manual/master/scripts/setup.ps1 | iex
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\textbf{What the script installs:}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \textbf{Applications:} Slack, VS Code, \LaTeX~distribution, Git, Dropbox
+\item \textbf{Python environment:} Miniconda with the \texttt{cdl} conda environment
+\item \textbf{Python packages:} NumPy, Pandas, PyTorch, Transformers, HyperTools,
+  Quail, timecorr, supereeg, and other lab-standard packages
+\end{itemize}
+
+\noindent After installation, activate the CDL environment with:
+\begin{verbatim}
+conda activate cdl
+\end{verbatim}
+
+\textbf{Getting help with setup issues:}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item For software or hardware issues: email \href{mailto:help@dartmouth.edu}{help@dartmouth.edu}
+\item For lab-specific issues: reach out to \director~via Slack or email
+\item For non-urgent questions or general interest problems:
+  file an issue at \url{https://github.com/ContextLab/lab-manual/issues}
