2026-06-25Add runtime GNU-tool guard; document Linux-only platform supportPaul Buetow
shuriken shells out to GNU-only features of the standard Unix tools (find -printf, stat -c, cp -a, sort -R). Add require_gnu_tools in a new src/lib/compat.source.sh, sourced early and invoked from main() before any action runs. On invocation it feature-probes each tool in a throwaway temp dir; if any probe fails it prints a clear error naming the offending tool and exits 1, so non-GNU (macOS/BSD) environments fail fast instead of producing broken output. README gains a Platform compatibility section and the requirements line now mentions GNU coreutils/findutils. Tests cover the find and stat rejection paths; the shared test helper that builds a coreutils-without-imagemagick PATH now includes cp and stat (which the guard probes).
