+# 2026-02-24 Session Notes
+
+## Houdini Linux Installation Research
+
+Brief session focused on gathering installation guidance for SideFX Houdini on Linux. User requested installation to /mnt/work/ and provided the SideFX FAQ link. Fetched complete Linux installation instructions from official documentation.
+
+Key findings: The installation process is interactive (requires sudo and component/licensing selection via installer GUI or terminal prompts). Installation tarball must be downloaded manually from sidefx.com (requires authentication). Default installation creates symlink at `/opt/hfs21.0` with launcher at `/opt/hfs/21.0/houdini_setup`. Important: do not place installer file in /root to avoid permission errors.
+
+No actual installation was performed during session. User introduced agent-browser skill at session end but did not execute it. Session duration: ~3 minutes.
