Over a two-month period, this developer focused on platform support alignment across multiple repositories, including input-output-hk/kes-agent, input-output-hk/mithril, and IntersectMBO/cardano-api. They systematically deprecated and removed x86_64-darwin (Intel Mac) architecture support to align with the Nixpkgs 26.11 policy, reducing maintenance overhead and clarifying platform availability for users. Their work involved coordinated Nix configuration updates, consistent commit messaging, and thorough documentation of changes. Utilizing Nix, YAML, and system configuration skills, they streamlined build processes and improved release planning. The approach emphasized cross-repository consistency, policy compliance, and clear communication of technical rationale in both code and documentation.

April 2026: Platform deprecation across six repositories to align with Nixpkgs 26.11 policy. Dropped x86_64-darwin (Intel Macs) support in the following repos with dedicated commits: input-output-hk/kes-agent (0a8df929690fa01aafde94bbfb1036934ed5d219), input-output-hk/mithril (09d4ab701b3a2de124517ed4cf367acc97d0177c), IntersectMBO/cardano-api (3af2b56ac07f67dabfe1b40d37eaa3172d481d0c), IntersectMBO/cardano-base (9dd0d1290e89204f6ff04d44193c1b871227def4), IntersectMBO/cardano-cli (26b9be5124fccf63638d0c95269bb92d5acb6639), IntersectMBO/ouroboros-consensus (aa0ef68a5510c2f8d7f3013c346e96b5af2b3ee5). Rationale: Nixpkgs intends to drop Intel Mac support in 26.11 and this aligns our platform support accordingly. Impact includes reduced maintenance burden, clearer platform availability for users, and better resource allocation for supported architectures.
