Execute a piece of custom PowerShell code

:::note[Using the PowerShell Scripting Library]
Inside this snippet you have the full CapaSystems PowerShell Scripting Library available — the `$cs.*` helper functions and cmdlets documented under [CapaInstaller PowerPacks](/capainstaller/powerpacks/). It is the same `CapaOne.ScriptingLibrary.dll` that powers PowerPacks, and the [PowerPack global variables](/capainstaller/powerpacks/powerpack-global-variables/) (for example `$global:Packageroot`) are available too.

Unlike CapaInstaller PowerPacks, CapaOne has no `kit` folder — every file you reference lives directly in `$global:Packageroot`.
