+    # Agents are outbound-only (poll forgejo, call llama) — no HTTP/TCP
+    # endpoint to probe. The Nomad native provider only supports tcp/http
+    # checks, not script checks. Registering without a check block means
+    # Nomad tracks health via task lifecycle: task running = healthy,
+    # task dead = service deregistered. This matches the docker-compose
+    # pgrep healthcheck semantics (process alive = healthy).
