Node.js built-in fetch does not automatically use HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY environment variables. Users behind a proxy need to opt in explicitly via NODE_OPTIONS='--use-env-proxy'.

Add a Proxy Support section to docs/cli.md explaining the issue and the fix, and link to it from the main README.md near the Requirements table.
