Request: macOS x86_64 (Intel) wheel for browser-act-cli #6

Description

@stevenkaiwang

Platform

  • CPU: Intel Core i5-1038NG7 (x86_64)
  • macOS: 26.4.1
  • Python: 3.12.9

Problem

browser-act-cli only publishes macosx_11_0_arm64 wheels for macOS — no x86_64 macOS wheel, and no sdist fallback. The wheel contains 271 Cython-compiled .cpython-312-darwin.so files, so it cannot run on Intel Macs.

$ uv tool install browser-act-cli --python 3.12

Because all versions of browser-act-cli have no wheels with a matching platform tag
(e.g., `macosx_26_0_x86_64`) and you require browser-act-cli, we can conclude that
your requirements are unsatisfiable.

hint: Wheels are available for `browser-act-cli` (v0.1.27) on the following platforms:
`manylinux_2_17_aarch64`, `manylinux_2_17_x86_64`, `macosx_11_0_arm64`, `win_amd64`

Why this matters

Linux x86_64 and Windows x86_64 wheels already exist — the Cython extensions compile fine for x86_64. Adding a macosx_x86_64 build target to the release pipeline would unlock all remaining Intel Mac users.

Workaround

Currently the only option for Intel Mac users is to run via Docker with the manylinux_2_17_x86_64 wheel — which adds significant friction compared to uv tool install.

Request

Please add macosx_x86_64 (or macosx_10_9_x86_64 for broader compatibility) to the wheel build matrix.
