(#46963592)
I contributed by identifying and reproducing an onboarding blocker where Hive examples could not be executed from a clean clone.
Issue: Running example scripts failed due to unresolved internal imports, since the repository was not installable as a package and no supported execution path was documented (issue #3207).
What I did: I reproduced the failure on a clean environment, documented clear reproduction steps, and provided a minimal fix so examples could run out of the box.
Why it matters: First-time users should be able to clone a repo and run an example immediately. Fixing this reduces onboarding friction and makes Hive easier to evaluate and contribute to.
