mavgpud reverse-proxied every path to llama-server with no authentication on
a LAN port. Any client on the network could submit model work, hold the model
resident by touching the idle clock, and read /slots, which returns the
prompts of whoever else was using the card.

It now reads a bearer token from token_file and requires it on every request,
/health included: /health reports whether the card is loaded and free, which
is what someone deciding to take it would ask. A listen address reachable
from the network with no token is a startup failure rather than a downgrade
to loopback. homesrv is the client and it is on the LAN, so a loopback
default would look safe and take the model arm down.

Beyond the token: an allowlist of the five paths Maven calls, so a leaked
token buys the model API and not llama-server's admin surface; a body cap and
an in-flight cap on the proxy; and header and idle timeouts on the server.
No read or write timeout — a completion on this card legitimately takes
minutes.

Every shape of wrong credential gets a case: no header, wrong token, a prefix
of the token, the token with no scheme, and Basic. Plus the two the allowlist
exists for, /slots and its save action, and the caps.

The readiness test now posts to /v1/chat/completions. The allowlist sits in
front of the readiness check and answers 405 to a method mavgpud never
serves, so the old GET measured the allowlist rather than the 503.

llm.Client carries a bearer credential and sets it on the completion, and
Pair signs the /health probe with it too. An unsigned probe would answer 401,
Pair would read that as a card that is busy, and every workstation turn would
fall back to the resident model with nothing naming why.

The token comes from workstation.token, expanded from MAVEN_GPU_TOKEN like
every other secret in that file. Missing, and voicewire says so at startup:
the fallback is silent by design and this failure would otherwise be
invisible.
