Description
Currently, Dockerfile for mantis explicitly states --platform linux/amd64 and pulls tools for the same architecture.
This causes problems when underlying host has a different architecture.
Having cross-platform support will allow mantis and its modules to run on any host, regardless of architecture.

Research direction
Start by reading the repository's Dockerfile and locating the architecture-specific tool downloads mentioned in the issue. Trace how those tools are used by mantis and its modules, then verify that the container and modules work on hosts other than linux/amd64. Done means the explicit amd64 dependency is removed without breaking the existing workflow.
