 - API keys: add one or more API keys to the `apiKeys` array in `config.json` (each entry may be a string or an object with `key` and optional `rateLimitPerMinute`).

 ## Output
 
-CSV files are written to `output` by default. Individual documents may override this with their own `outputDir` in `config.json`.
+CSV files are written to `output` by default. The onboarding wizard uses that output directory automatically and names each file after the sheet.
+
+If `config.json` is missing, the app creates a starter file next to the executable when packaged, or in the current working directory when running from source, and exits so you can fill it in before the next run.
+
+If you choose the wizard, it will ask for the auth method, credential count, document count, and sheet names. It will not ask for output directories or file names.
+
+## Windows Packaging
+
+To build a Windows executable from source, run:
+
+```bash
+npm run build:win
+```
+
+That creates `dist/gSheets-Rate-Assistant-v2.0.0.exe` using the current version in the filename. For distribution, ship the exe alongside a `config.json` and any service account credential files, or set `GSA_CONFIG` to point at a different config file.
+
+Gitea now builds only on version tags like `v1.1.1` through the workflow in `.gitea/workflows/build.yml`.
