…, curl|sh doc) Follow-up to #34. No runtime behaviour changes — these only remove patterns that trip naive scanners: - .envrc: move the commented `# export API_KEY="..."` / DATABASE_URL examples (flagged as a "Generic API key" — a false positive: commented "..." placeholders) into a new .envrc.example template. .envrc keeps a pointer comment; real secrets still go in a gitignored .env via dotenv_if_exists. - setup.sh: drop the `curl … | sh` convenience one-liner from the usage comment and reword the helper header ("avoids curl|sh" -> "no pipe-to-shell") so no curl-pipe-to-shell substring remains anywhere.

The relocated `# export API_KEY="..."` example tripped Hypatia's secret_detected rule on .envrc.example (same false positive, new file). Describe the optional vars in prose (no NAME="value" assignment, no API_KEY token) so no tracked file contains a secret-looking pattern.

Why
Follow-up to #34, addressing the residual false-positive findings from the Hypatia scan on that PR. No runtime behaviour changes — these only remove patterns that trip naive scanners.
Changes
.envrc"Generic API key" (was flagged critical — false positive)Line 24 was a commented
