Use the option --with-all-dependencies (-W) to allow upgrades, downgrades and removals for packages currently locked to specific versions.
You can also try re-running composer require with an explicit version constraint, e.g. "composer require laravel/valet:*" to figure out if any version is installable, or "composer require laravel/valet:^2.1" if you know which you need.

Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json and ./composer.lock to their original content.

Diagnosis

Cound't install it at all

It sounds like your ~/.composer/composer.json file has symfony/process: 7.0 hardcoded into it.
Valet's latest (4.6.1) release is only tested up to symfony/process v6.x.

So, until Valet is updated, try changing your global composer config to use "symfony/process": "^6.0|^7.0", instead of just 7.0

Gonna close this since there's a PR open. Thanks.
