+### Older CPUs (No AVX Support)
+
+If you're running on an older CPU without AVX support (e.g., Intel Xeon Nehalem, AMD Bulldozer, or older), the CLI may crash with "Illegal instruction". In that case, download the **baseline** variant from GitHub releases:
+
+1. Go to [Kilo Releases](https://github.com/Kilo-Org/kilocode/releases)
+2. Download the `-baseline` variant for your platform:
+   - Linux x64: `kilo-linux-x64-baseline.tar.gz`
+   - macOS x64: `kilo-darwin-x64-baseline.zip`
+   - Windows x64: `kilo-windows-x64-baseline.zip`
+3. Extract and run the `kilo` binary directly
