I found the executable after doing a nuget install
.
Launching it failed. I'll probably need to build and debug locally. I'm running on a Mac. I'm guessing due to the age, this is a full framework project so I ran the tool using Mono. I might be experiencing an issue with the difference in paths between windows and macOS:

But I suspect I may have issues reading the assembly as well as it's .net 6.
So you can probably close this issue.
I've read the linked articles for how to document my binary module, but the article stops at explaining how to actually use
XmlDoc2CmdletDoc
. There's a flowchart but that doesn't explain how to install it (including the dependencies) or invoke it. Unless I'm missing something.
