✅ Passed checks (7 passed)

Check name	Status	Explanation
Description Check	✅ Passed	Check skipped - CodeRabbit’s high-level summary is enabled.
Title check	✅ Passed	The title 'fix: add back in macOS amd64 runners' accurately describes the main change: reintroducing macOS AMD64 runners to the workflow after deprecation.
Docstring Coverage	✅ Passed	No functions found in the changed files to evaluate docstring coverage. Skipping docstring coverage check.
Test Coverage For New Implementations	✅ Passed	This PR modifies only GitHub Actions workflow configuration to update macOS runners, which is an infrastructure change that does not introduce new application code, features, or functional bug fixes requiring test coverage.
Test Quality And Coverage	✅ Passed	This PR only modifies GitHub Actions workflow configuration to update CI/CD runner specifications without introducing new code functionality or testable implementations.
Test File Naming And Structure	✅ Passed	The PR modifies only GitHub Actions workflow configuration (.github/workflows/cross-platform-test.yml), not actual test files or test implementations, making the custom check for test file naming and structure inapplicable.
Excessive Mock Usage Warning	✅ Passed	The custom check for excessive mock usage is inapplicable to this PR as it only modifies GitHub Actions workflow configuration, not test files.

92-100: Correctly implements macOS AMD64 runners using appropriate larger runner label.

The macos-latest-large runner is the correct label for 12-core macOS larger runners, providing AMD64 support that was previously unavailable with deprecated macos-13. The placement before ARM64 entries is logical, and the architecture/Python version mappings align with the stable test matrix pattern.

---

399-406: Experimental matrix entries mirror stable matrix approach with Python 3.13.

The experimental job correctly adds both macOS AMD64 and ARM64 entries for Python 3.13, maintaining consistency with the stable matrix structure. Since the experimental job uses continue-on-error: true, test failures on Python 3.13 won't block CI, which is appropriate for an experimental version.

📝 Customizable high-level summaries are now available in beta!

You can now customize how CodeRabbit generates the high-level summary in your pull requests — including its content, structure, tone, and formatting.

• Provide your own instructions using the high_level_summary_instructions setting.

• Use high_level_summary_in_walkthrough to move the summary from the description to the walkthrough section.

Example instruction:

"Divide the high-level summary into five sections:

1. 📝 Description — Summarize the main change in 50–60 words, explaining what was done.
2. 📓 References — List relevant issues, discussions, documentation, or related PRs.
3. 📦 Dependencies & Requirements — Mention any new/updated dependencies, environment variable changes, or configuration updates.
4. 📊 Contributor Summary — Include a Markdown table showing contributions:
   | Contributor | Lines Added | Lines Removed | Files Changed |
5. ✔️ Additional Notes — Add any extra reviewer context.
   Keep each section concise (under 200 words) and use bullet or numbered lists for clarity."
