 ### Use an Existing vLLM Server
 
-For an already-running vLLM server, run `$$nemoclaw onboard` and select **Local vLLM [experimental]** from the provider list.
+For an already-running vLLM server, run `$$nemoclaw onboard` and select **Local vLLM** from the provider list.
+On generic hosts, you see an experimental label on the entry; on DGX Spark or DGX Station, you do not.
 If vLLM is already running, NemoClaw detects the running model and validates the endpoint.
 When vLLM exposes runtime metadata such as `max_model_len`, NemoClaw uses that value for the configured context window unless you set `NEMOCLAW_CONTEXT_WINDOW` yourself.

 ## Recommended Fix
 
-For persistent NemoClaw use, start vLLM with auto tool choice and the parser that matches your model family, then rerun onboarding and select **Local vLLM [experimental]** or **Other OpenAI-compatible endpoint**.
