Stage 1 of the candle-native pivot. Replaces the external-process
harness model (mistralrs over HTTP, llamacpp placeholder) with an
in-process Harness trait whose sole implementation is candle. The
trait keeps its shape so future engines slot in additively, but
start/stop default to no-ops and HarnessConfig drops endpoint and
systemd_unit since no harness needs external supervision.
Behaviour is unchanged on the wire: load_model returns a "not
implemented yet (Stage 2)" error and list_models is empty. The
gateway-side proxy, poller, and router are untouched.
CLAUDE.md Phase 11 (llama.cpp) and Phase 12 (mistral.rs COPR) are
marked superseded; the staged plan lives in
~/.claude/plans/create-a-more-aggressive-calm-naur.md.

Previous defaults collided with well-trodden infra services and with
the Linux ephemeral port range:
- cortex API 8000 — common dev-server default (Django, minio UI)
- cortex metrics 9100 — Prometheus node_exporter default
- neuron API 9090 — Cockpit default on Fedora, Prometheus self
Move to helexa-themed palindromic ports, all below Linux's
32768-60999 ephemeral range and not registered to any well-known
service:
- cortex API 31313
- cortex metrics 31314
- neuron API 13131
Updated places:
- cortex.example.toml, neuron.example.toml defaults
- default impls in cortex-core and neuron config
- cortex-cli --endpoint default for the status subcommand
- doc comments citing example URLs
- README.md and CLAUDE.md snippets
Consumers already on the old ports need a one-line edit in their
/etc/cortex/cortex.toml or /etc/neuron/neuron.toml to match;
firewall rules and prometheus scrape configs will also need
updating.

Replace NodeConfig (static vram_mb, pinned) with NeuronEndpoint.
Hardware discovery and model pinning now come from neuron API and
models.toml catalogue respectively.
- config.rs: nodes -> neurons, add models_config path
- catalogue.rs: ModelProfile with pinned_on, ModelCatalogue
- poller.rs: poll neuron GET /models (ModelInfo format)
- router.rs: resolve inference endpoint via neuron GET /models/{id}/endpoint
- evictor.rs: call neuron POST /models/unload
- node.rs: remove vram_mb, pinned fields (come from discovery/catalogue)
- All 22 gateway tests updated to mock neuron API
- Remove MistralModelsResponse, ModelLifecycleRequest (no longer needed)
