Closes #348.

Summary

README.md documented only the Manage Server installer's requirements (Administrator, Windows build, container runtime) — zero mentions of triton-agent, agent/get.ps1, port 8443, or firewall requirements anywhere. A user only learned about the agent installer's own prerequisites reactively, if/when the pre-flight check failed at runtime.

Added an "Agent installation" section matching the detail already given for the Manage Server installer:

  • Prerequisites table (sudo vs Administrator, PowerShell 5.1+, Windows 1803+ for full pre-flight diagnostics, the enrollment bundle requirement)
  • Required outbound ports (8443 gateway, 8082 binary downloads) with a note on their configurability
  • Install one-liners for both platforms

Links out to the main triton repo's docs/AGENT_ENROLLMENT.md for the full enrollment walkthrough rather than duplicating it here — companion doc fix (#343/#344/#346/#347) already merged there.

Docs-only change, no scripts touched. (Note: the working tree also has pre-existing, unrelated local edits to README.md and get.sh downgrading example version numbers 1.2.0→1.1.0 — deliberately left out of this commit/PR since they're unrelated to #348.)

Test plan

  • Verified PowerShell 5.1 / tar.exe / Windows 1803 claims directly against agent/get.ps1 source
  • Verified port numbers (8443/8082) against docs/AGENT_ENROLLMENT.md in the main triton repo
