Blocking: docs/inference/set-up-vllm.mdx:49 incorrectly says N1x does not offer the existing-server entry. With vllmRunning=true and no explicit managed-install request, buildVllmMenuEntries returns Local vLLM on N1x, as vllm-menu.test.ts confirms. State that ordinary N1x detection offers Local vLLM, while explicit NEMOCLAW_PROVIDER=install-vllm preserves managed-preview intent and stops onboarding when the port is occupied. I found no additional correctness, security, test, scope, regression, or documentation blockers.

@cv, I rechecked this against the end-to-end onboarding order at the latest PR commit,
Changing this page to offer Local vLLM during ordinary N1x detection would document a flow that stops before the menu. Can you reconsider this request, or point to the accepted onboarding path that admits an existing N1x vLLM server? |

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Add a safety condition before recommending that users stop vLLM.
These messages tell users to stop the existing vLLM server before changing its GPU or port. Managed vLLM is host-global, so another gateway or distributed deployment may use it. Following this instruction can interrupt that deployment.
Qualify each stop instruction with “only if no other gateway or distributed deployment uses it.” Otherwise, tell users not to stop the server and provide the supported alternative.
The PR objective requires this host-global server lifecycle warning.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Make the reuse instruction actionable in non-interactive mode.
When NEMOCLAW_PROVIDER=install-vllm remains selected, setupNim aborts instead of opening a provider menu. The message says to “select Local vLLM,” and omitting only --vllm-gpu-device leaves install-vllm selected, so the same conflict repeats. Tell non-interactive users to rerun with the Local vLLM provider key, or generate a separate non-interactive message.

Summary
Preserves explicit managed-vLLM intent when a GPU selector conflicts with a server that is already running, instead of silently changing the provider and then rejecting the selector.
NemoClaw keeps the existing runtime untouched and reports clear reuse or reconfiguration actions.
