Fence the setup commands.

Lines 1-19 are not inside a fenced code block. Markdown parses each # ... line as a heading and renders the commands as ordinary prose. Wrap the complete shell sequence in a fenced bash block so contributors can read and copy it as commands.

Use the documented Guix command.

QUICKSTART-DEV.adoc uses guix shell. GNU Guix documents guix shell, including --development/-D, for development environments. guix develop is not the documented command, so standard Guix users will fail at this step. Replace it with the repository’s supported guix shell invocation. (guix.gnu.org)

Separate Toolbox and Distrobox instructions.

The section promises toolbox/distrobox, but both commands use toolbox. A contributor using Distrobox cannot follow this option. Rename the option to Toolbox or provide separate Distrobox commands.

Document the supported Toolbox dependency setup.

This section states that dependencies must be installed manually but provides no command or dependency list. Do not add just setup-dev: neither the root Justfile nor the imported contractile.just defines that recipe. Document the actual commands, or add a real setup recipe before referencing it here.

Dedent the content below the headings.

The headings are now normal Markdown headings, but their following prose and lists remain indented by four spaces. Markdown renders those blocks as code, so the reporting, feature, first-contribution, and commit guidance sections do not render as normal text and lists. Remove the unintended indentation from those bodies.

Also applies to: 73-73, 89-89, 110-110

Reflow the branch examples.

The hard wraps join docs/short-description to test/what-added and split the test description across lines. Put each branch example on its own line or list item without changing the wording.
