+    """
+    Adapter to convert a NestedSampler object into an MCMC-compatible interface.
+
+    This class reshapes posterior samples from a NestedSampler into a chain-and-draw 
+    structure expected by MCMC workflows, providing compatibility with downstream 
+    tools like ArviZ for posterior analysis.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    nested_sampler : numpyro.contrib.nested_sampling.NestedSampler
+        The NestedSampler object containing posterior samples.
+    rng_key : jax.random.PRNGKey
+        The random key used for sampling.
+    num_samples : int
+        The total number of posterior samples to draw.
+    num_chains : int, optional
+        The number of artificial chains to create for MCMC compatibility (default is 1).
+    *args : tuple
+        Additional positional arguments required by the model (e.g., data, labels).
+    **kwargs : dict
+        Additional keyword arguments required by the model.
+
+    Attributes
+    ----------
+    samples : dict
+        Reshaped posterior samples organized by variable name.
+    thinning : int
+        Dummy thinning attribute for compatibility with MCMC.
+    sampler : NestedToMCMCAdapter
+        Mimics the sampler attribute of an MCMC object.
+    model : callable
+        The probabilistic model used in the NestedSampler.
+    _args : tuple
+        Positional arguments passed to the model.
+    _kwargs : dict
+        Keyword arguments passed to the model.
+
+    Methods
+    -------
+    get_samples(group_by_chain=True)
+        Returns posterior samples reshaped by chain or flattened if `group_by_chain` is False.
+    get_extra_fields(group_by_chain=True)
+        Provides dummy sampling statistics like accept probabilities, step sizes, and num_steps.
