fix(litellm): Fix timeout kind reporting + add busy/degraded detection

1. TIMEOUT KIND FIX: run_command returns (1, '', 'TIMEOUT') when its own
   timeout fires. probe_http now checks for this before falling through to
   'curl exit <rc>', so a 30s timeout reports 'timeout after 30s' not
   'curl exit 1'.

2. BUSY/DEGRADED DETECTION: After both model probes fail, check the
   model's host health endpoint (e.g. 192.168.68.8:8080/health for
   gpu-dense). If the host answers 200, report 'busy (completion timed
   out after retry; host healthy 200)' — do NOT fail the run on that
   alone. If the host does not answer, that's a real FAIL.

3. RETRY TIMEOUT INCREASED: Single-host retry timeout raised from 45s to
   90s. Worst-case prefill on a single-slot .8 host is ~76s (observed
   83K-token prompt at 1078 tok/s), so 90s covers it.

New line shapes:
- Busy: 'gpu-dense: busy (completion timed out after retry; host healthy 200)'
- Real failure: 'probe-failed: gpu-dense timeout after 30s then timeout after 90s (2 attempts)'

+## GC SCHEDULE (PBS datastore only)
+
+The PBS GC schedule is defined in ONE authoritative place: `/etc/cron.d/pbs-gc` on storepve.
+The schedule is `0 20 * * *` (20:00 LOCAL = 00:00 UTC, since host timezone is America/New_York).
+This applies **only** to the PBS datastore (`/tank/pbs-backup`), NOT to media volumes.
+Media volumes (/media/*) are report-only at all threat levels.
+
+The cron runs `/usr/local/bin/pbs-gc.sh` which executes:
+```bash
+proxmox-backup-manager garbage-collection start storepve-datastore
+```
+This is NOT a `prune` operation; it is a GC pass that reclaims unreferenced chunks.
+There is no `--keep-daily` flag; retention is governed by jobs.cfg (keep-daily=35).
+The GC does not touch media volumes or any other filesystem.

-- Per-key MCP server grants not functional — only master key has access
+- ~~Per-key MCP server grants not functional — only master key has access~~ (resolved 2026-09-18: per-key grants now work)
 - Responses API (`/v1/responses`) with MCP tools broken on llama.cpp backends
 - HTTP 307 redirect on `/mcp` → use `/mcp/` (trailing slash) or `/mcp-rest/` endpoints
 - `api_mode: responses` in Hermes appends `/v1/responses` to base_url → **base_url must end at `/v1`, never `/responses`** (double-path bug)
 
-### Migration Path
-When LiteLLM is upgraded to a version supporting per-key MCP grants:
-1. Grant agent keys `mcp_servers: ["ra_h_os"]`
-2. Update Hermes `mcp_servers.ra-h-os.url` from `http://192.168.68.65:3100/mcp` → `http://192.168.68.116:4000/mcp/`

+### Migration Path (COMPLETED 2026-09-18)

+## PBS GC (Proxmox Backup Server)
+
+### Schedule
+Cron `0 20 * * *` on the **storepve HOST** (192.168.68.6) = 20:00 America/New_York local = **00:00 UTC**.
+
+**NOTE**: The closed PR #116 said "20:00 UTC" — this is WRONG by four hours. Do not copy it.
+
+### What Actually Runs
+Host script `/usr/local/bin/pbs-gc.sh` runs `pct exec 107 -- proxmox-backup-manager garbage-collection start storepve-datastore`.
+
+**IMPORTANT**: The tool `proxmox-backup-manager` exists only inside CT 107 (where the PBS server runs). The storepve host has only `proxmox-backup-client`. This is why the job had never worked before 2026-09-19 00:00 UTC.
+
+### Datastore Location
+- **Datastore**: CT 107's `/mnt/pbs-backup` on the storepve ZFS dataset `/tank/pbs-backup` (pool `tank`, ~11T free)
+- **NOT** `/media/easystore2` (media library, 3.7T, 96% used — separate volume)
+
+### Liveness Check
+The new `proxmox-monitor.sh` leg checks storepve-datastore GC health:
+- Reads GC state from CT 107: `pct exec 107 -- proxmox-backup-manager garbage-collection list --output-format json`
+- **FAILS** if `last-run-endtime` is older than 48 hours
+- Reports age in hours and pending-bytes
+
+**All six verdict shapes** (exactly as emitted by the script):
+
+1. **Healthy** (fresh GC, 0 B pending):
+   `✅ PBS GC: healthy (last run 1h ago, pending-bytes: 0 B)`
+
+2. **Stale** (GC ran >48h ago):
+   `🔴 PBS GC: stale (last run 49h ago, pending-bytes: 1048576 B)`
+
+3. **Probe-failed: empty read** (000/timeout/unreadable):
+   `🔴 PBS GC: probe-failed: storepve:192.168.68.6 (expected JSON, got 000)`
+
+4. **Probe-failed: unparseable** (non-empty but invalid JSON — the "command not found" case):
+   `🔴 PBS GC: probe-failed: storepve:192.168.68.6 (unparseable JSON)`
+
+5. **Never-run: datastore absent** (valid JSON but storepve-datastore not in list):
+   `🔴 PBS GC: never-run (storepve-datastore not found in GC list)`
+
+6. **Never-run: no endtime** (valid JSON with datastore present but last-run-endtime is null/0):
+   `🔴 PBS GC: never-run (storepve-datastore has no last-run-endtime)`
