+Supported non-experimental onboarding paths:
 
-Get an API key from [build.nvidia.com](https://build.nvidia.com). The `nemoclaw onboard` command prompts for this key during setup.
+| Provider | Notes |
+|---|---|
+| NVIDIA Endpoints | Curated hosted models on `integrate.api.nvidia.com`. |
+| OpenAI | Curated GPT models plus `Other...` for manual model entry. |
+| Other OpenAI-compatible endpoint | For proxies and compatible gateways. |
+| Anthropic | Curated Claude models plus `Other...` for manual model entry. |

-Local inference options such as Ollama and vLLM are still experimental. On macOS, they also depend on OpenShell host-routing support in addition to the local service itself being reachable on the host.
+During onboarding, NemoClaw validates the selected provider and model before it creates the sandbox:
+
+- OpenAI-compatible providers: tries `/responses` first, then `/chat/completions`
+- Anthropic-compatible providers: tries `/v1/messages`
+- If validation fails, the wizard prompts you to fix the selection before continuing
+
+Credentials stay on the host in `~/.nemoclaw/credentials.json`. The sandbox only sees the routed `inference.local` endpoint, not your raw provider key.
+
+Local Ollama is supported in the standard onboarding flow. Local vLLM remains experimental, and local host-routed inference on macOS still depends on OpenShell host-routing support in addition to the local service itself being reachable on the host.
