Description

On macOS Apple Silicon, restoring a NemoClaw sandbox snapshot to a new sandbox fails. The command aborts with "could not resolve '' pod image" and the destination is never created.
Environment
Device:        Mac Studio (Apple Silicon)
OS:            macOS (darwin)
Architecture:  arm64
Node.js:       v22.22.2
Docker:        29.5.2 (build 79eb04c7d8)
OpenShell CLI: 0.0.39
NemoClaw:      v0.0.49
OpenClaw:      v2026.4.24
Steps to Reproduce
1. Install NemoClaw v0.0.49 on macOS Apple Silicon.
2. Run `nemoclaw onboard` and complete the wizard for sandbox `my-assistant`.
3. Confirm Ready:        nemoclaw my-assistant status
4. Create a snapshot:    nemoclaw my-assistant snapshot create --name baseline-x
5. Restore to a NEW sandbox name that does NOT yet exist:
                         nemoclaw my-assistant snapshot restore baseline-x --to clone-1
Expected Result
Step 5 succeeds: the destination sandbox `clone-1` is auto-created from `my-assistant` and the snapshot state is restored.
Actual Result
$ nemoclaw my-assistant snapshot restore baseline-x --to clone-1
  Cannot auto-create 'clone-1': could not resolve 'my-assistant' pod image.
  Create 'clone-1' manually with 'nemoclaw onboard'.

Error: Restoring snapshot baseline-x to clone-1 failed (exit 1).
