+macOS x86_64 (Intel) is no longer officially supported for the legacy LocalStack CLI.
+The `cryptography` package used by the CLI has dropped support for macOS x86_64, so the CLI now pins an older, unsupported version of it as a stopgap to keep working on Intel Macs.
+If you are on an Intel Mac, we recommend switching to [`lstk`](/aws/developer-tools/running-localstack/lstk/) instead.

 You can install the LocalStack CLI using Brew directly from our official LocalStack tap:
 
 ```bash
 brew install localstack/tap/localstack-cli
 ```
