Prerequisites
Before building, ensure the Blink CLI is installed and authenticated:
npm install -g @blinkdotnew/cli
blink login
If blink is not installed, run the install command first. blink login opens the browser to create a workspace API key — follow the prompts and it saves credentials locally.
