Summary

  • Install
    equests explicitly in the Python CodeBox quickstart before running code that imports it
  • Replace the misleading note that CodeBox automatically installs required packages
  • Add a short note that third-party imports should be installed inside the CodeBox first

Why

This fixes the first-run confusion described in #439: in a clean environment, the quickstart code imports
equests without installing it, while CodeBox.run() only prints stdout. New users can see an empty result and assume the SDK is broken.

Checks

  • git diff --check

Docs-only change; no runtime tests were needed.

Fixes #439
