SplitNest documentation

SplitNest is a Windows terminal workspace built for AI coding agents. This is the reference for everything it does. It is adapted from the user guide in the repository, which is the source of truth if the two ever differ.

SplitNest is an MVP prototype: Windows 11 x64 only, with unsigned builds. See troubleshooting and known limitations.
