The piped installer prompts through your terminal.
Piping `curl` into `bash` strips the TTY, so in headless scripts or CI you must pass explicit acceptance of the third-party software notice or the installer exits before installing anything.
Either pass the env vars to the `bash` side of the pipe:

```console
$ curl -fsSL https://www.nvidia.com/nemoclaw.sh | NEMOCLAW_NON_INTERACTIVE=1 NEMOCLAW_ACCEPT_THIRD_PARTY_SOFTWARE=1 bash
```

or pass the flag form via `bash -s --`:

```console
$ curl -fsSL https://www.nvidia.com/nemoclaw.sh | bash -s -- --yes-i-accept-third-party-software
```

If you use nvm or fnm to manage Node.js, the installer might not update your current shell's PATH.
If `nemoclaw` is not found after install, run `source ~/.bashrc` (or `source ~/.zshrc` for zsh) or open a new terminal.
