Priority: Low
Phase: Phase 5 (MCP server)
Problem
The MCP server is a real operational dependency — if it's not up (or models aren't loaded), the API has no graceful signal.
Solution
Add a /health endpoint reporting rag_core model load status; wire into Docker Compose healthcheck so the API waits on it.
