Instructions
Execute a long-running shell command on this Windows PC and return all output after completion. Unlike run_command, this tool has a default timeout of 2 minutes (120 seconds) and is designed for commands that take a long time: npm install, pip install, compiling large projects, downloading big files, building projects, git clone large repositories, running test suites, or backup processes. Command runs through PowerShell.exe with a larger output buffer. Returns STDOUT, STDERR, and exit code.
