Greptile SummaryThe PR consistently documents that PyPI installs support Apple Silicon but not Intel macOS because current Ray releases provide no Intel Mac wheels.
|
| Filename | Overview |
|---|---|
| docs/docs/extraction/getting-started-about.md | The platform overview now limits supported macOS remote-NIM installations to Apple Silicon, resolving the previous unqualified support claim. |
| docs/docs/extraction/prerequisites-support-matrix.md | The support matrix now consistently excludes Intel macOS and explains the Ray wheel constraint. |
| nemo_retriever/README.md | The Remote NIM quick-start guidance now identifies Apple Silicon as the supported macOS architecture. |
