CI / test (push) Successful in 23s
Phase 3 (1/3): cluster inventory and placement
The two hard constraints from plan §1.1 are enforced structurally rather than
checked after the fact: there is no code path that can combine nodes from two
fabrics, and only GPUs of the profile's class are ever considered. Getting
either wrong produces a replica that starts, passes health checks, and then
hangs or crawls under load — which looks like success until traffic arrives.

- inventory: nodes, hardware, fabric attachments, allocations. A re-registering
  agent cannot clear an operator's cordon, since a cordon is usually in place
  because something is wrong with the node. A GPU with an ECC fault or another
  process on it is not free in any useful sense. Replicas are released whole,
  because they fail whole.
- placement: highest-priority profile that fits, with every rejected candidate
  explained. "Unschedulable" on its own tells an operator nothing about which
  of six constraints bit.
- bin packing fills partly used nodes first so whole nodes stay free for large
  models that cannot be split; multi-node replicas get the emptiest machines
  instead, being the least movable thing in the cluster.
- NVLink-aware GPU selection keeps a tensor-parallel group inside one domain
  where the topology is known, falling back to lowest free indices otherwise.

Property-based tests generate 400 random clusters and assert the invariants on
every placement produced: one fabric per multi-node replica, only that fabric's
HCAs per shard, one GPU class, no unhealthy or already-allocated GPU. The
table-driven tests cover the cases someone thought of; these cover the rest.
