  Graphcore ships no public REST API; its developer surface is the Poplar SDK for
  the IPU (Intelligence Processing Unit). The first-party client libraries below are
  distributed as source on the graphcore GitHub org and as prebuilt wheels/binaries
  inside the Poplar SDK download (https://www.graphcore.ai/downloads). None are
  published to PyPI (pypi.org/pypi/poptorch/json returned 404), so the registry is
  GitHub source + the SDK download rather than a package index.
