<!-- Add the related story/sub-task/bug number, like Resolves #123, or remove if NA --> **Related issue:** Resolves #48395 (story #41470) Reconciles the `.py` script-only package reference docs against shipped behavior. The feature guide (#48116) and reference docs (#48113 YAML, #48115 REST API) are already merged to `docs-v4.90.0`; this fixes remaining `.py` inconsistencies found during the #48395 reconciliation. Docs-only PR against `docs-v4.90.0`. ## Changes - **`docs/REST API/rest-api.md`** — corrected the Add-package platform scoping: `.sh` and `.py` run on macOS and Linux, `.ps1` runs on Windows (was "Windows or Linux hosts," which omitted macOS and wrongly implied `.py` on Windows). Verified against `SoftwareInstallerPlatformFromExtension` and the Unix-like install-eligibility check in `ee/server/service/software_installers.go`. - **`docs/Configuration/yaml-files.md`** — fixed a backtick typo in the Script-only heading (`` .`py` `` → `` `.py` ``) and added `.py` to the `controls.scripts` glob note (prose + example), matching the already-merged `scripts.md` statement that `.py` scripts are supported on macOS and Linux. ## No changes needed - No new audit-log activity type — `docs/Contributing/reference/audit-logs.md` unchanged. - No new usage-statistics toggle — `articles/fleet-usage-statistics.md` unchanged. - Feature guide (`deploy-software-packages.md`, `scripts.md`, secrets doc) already merged via #48116. - `python_packages` in `rest-api.md` is the osquery inventory source for installed pip packages — unrelated to `.py` packages, left as-is. ## Note The script-only advanced-options wording (in `yaml-files.md` and `deploy-software-packages.md`) is corrected separately in the #42797 docs PR against `docs-v4.89.0`; it reaches 4.90 via the normal forward-merge. # Checklist for submitter - [x] QA'd all new/changed functionality manually (verified `.py` platform mapping and script-extension handling in `server/fleet/software_installer.go`, `server/fleet/scripts.go`, `pkg/spec/gitops.go`) <!-- Docs-only PR: no changes file, no code/tests, no migrations, no config settings, no fleetd changes. -->
