Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with pip install -r requirements.txt on macOS 15.6.1 and inspect requirements.txt at line 33, where nvidia-tensorrt is declared. Check whether the dependency installation path works with the NVIDIA Python Package Index; done means the documented requirements install completes successfully on the reported platform.
