43-44: Remove unnecessary quotes and consider programmatic version enforcement.The Python version compatibility note is helpful, but has formatting and enforcement issues:
- Remove the double quotes around the note—they're non-standard for documentation.
- Consider enforcing this requirement programmatically (e.g.,
python_requires=">=3.11,<3.13"in a setup.py file) rather than relying solely on documentation.📝 Proposed documentation fix

Verify each finding against the current code and only fix it if needed. In `@README.md` around lines 43 - 44, Remove the extraneous double quotes around the Python compatibility note in README.md (make it plain text) and add programmatic enforcement by specifying python version bounds in the packaging metadata (for example set python_requires=">=3.11,<3.13" in setup.py or the equivalent in pyproject.toml/setup.cfg) so the requirement is enforced by pip/build tools rather than only in docs.

In `@requirements.txt`:
- Line 2: Remove the interpreter constraint string 'python>=3.11.0,<3.13.0' from
requirements.txt because pip treats it as a package dependency; either delete
that line from requirements.txt or move the constraint into a pyproject.toml
under [project] as requires-python = ">=3.11,<3.13" (or otherwise enforce the
Python version via CI/.python-version) so the project no longer lists a
non-package requirement named "python".
- Line 1: The requirements pin for the Python package "torch" allows vulnerable
versions (currently "torch>=2.0.0"); update the constraint in requirements.txt
to "torch>=2.8.0" to ensure all listed CVEs are patched, then regenerate the
lock/artifact (pip-compile, poetry lock, or pip freeze) and run CI tests to
validate compatibility; search for the symbol "torch" in requirements.txt and
CI/deployment scripts to update any duplicated constraints.

python package PyPI pip requirements.txt interpreter version constraint
💡 Result:
1) On PyPI (your package’s supported Python versions)
To constrain the interpreter version your distribution can be installed on, publish metadata Requires-Python (aka requires-python in pyproject.toml). Installers (including pip) use this when selecting a release to install. [2], [3]
pyproject.toml (PEP 621)
[project]
requires-python = ">=3.10"This becomes core metadata Requires-Python: >=3.10. [2], [3]
pip will refuse a release that doesn’t match the current interpreter (and may try older releases that do). [4]
2) In requirements.txt (pip requirements files)
You generally cannot “set the Python version” for the environment from a requirements file. What you can do is conditional dependencies using PEP 508 environment markers (e.g., python_version). [1]
Examples:
tomli==2.0.1 ; python_version < "3.11"
uvloop==0.19.0 ; sys_platform == "linux" and python_version >= "3.10"[1]
If you need a hard guardrail, you typically enforce the Python version outside requirements.txt (e.g., with pyproject.toml / your packaging metadata, CI checks, .python-version, runtime.txt, etc.), rather than expecting pip to “switch interpreters”.

Remove python>=3.11.0,<3.13.0 from requirements.txt — it's interpreted as a package dependency, not an interpreter constraint.
Line 2 contains a Python version specifier that pip will treat as a requirement for a package named "python", which will cause installation failures. To enforce Python version constraints, either:
- Create
pyproject.tomlwith:
[project]
requires-python = ">=3.11,<3.13"- Or remove the line if the project is not intended as an installable package and relies on external Python version management (e.g., CI/CD,
.python-versionfiles, or documentation).

"Updated the README to recommend Python 3.11/3.12. During local setup on Windows, Python 3.13 failed to install key ML dependencies (torch, sentencepiece) due to missing wheels. This update helps new contributors avoid installation hurdles."
