🎯 What: Fixed insecure script installation patterns in README.md.
⚠️ Risk: The previous pattern allowed for immediate execution of unverified remote scripts, posing a security risk if the remote source is compromised or the user copy-pasts without reading.
πŸ›‘οΈ Solution: Implemented the 'download-inspect-execute' pattern across all installation blocks. Users are now prompted to inspect the script before manually executing it, preventing accidental or blind execution of external code.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 4598098263143838646 started by @Devanik21

Addresses the insecure 'curl | sh' anti-pattern by enforcing a
'download-inspect-execute' workflow.

- Commented out execution commands (sh/bash install.sh)
- Added explicit instruction to run after inspection
- Applied fix to OpenClaw, Tailscale, and Ollama installation blocks
- Ensures consistency across all deployment guides in README.md

Code Review

This pull request updates the README.md to comment out the direct execution of installation scripts for OpenClaw, Tailscale, and Ollama, replacing them with instructions to run the scripts only after manual inspection. This change encourages safer security practices for users. I have no feedback to provide.
