## Instructions for Windows Users

To have a TeX engine on Windows, you need to install the MikTeX software. Follow these steps:

1. Go to the [MikTeX download page](https://miktex.org/download).
2. Download the installer for your version of Windows.
3. Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
4. Once installed, you can verify the installation by opening a command prompt and typing `latex --version`.

- This enables latex source to be compiled by the agents.
- **[IMPORTANT]** If this step cannot be run due to not having sudo access, pdf compiling can be turned off via running Agent Laboratory via setting the `--compile-latex` flag to false: `--compile-latex "false"`
