Summary

  • Fixes the macro arguments supported-types list: validate_macro_args accepts bool, not boolean.
  • Adds a short note that boolean is not an alias (unlike string/str and integer/int).

Fixes #9891.

Test plan

  • Verified against dbt-core macro argument type grammar (bool only).
  • Docs preview (if applicable on PR CI).

Clarifies validate_macro_args supported types per dbt-core grammar. Fixes dbt-labs#9891.
