joule-code-cascade now ships FnStage: any tier can be expressed by supplying a
resolver closure, so a consumer binds the JouleClaw agent schema — or any other
runtime/model — to the cascade without this crate depending on it. The
standards-clean way to express L1 (Lawful), L2 (Embed), and L3 (Model) tiers;
the reference consumer's local vLLM provider is an L3 backend behind such a stage.
Test: an L3 FnStage behind an empty L0 closes the request at L3 (lower tier
missed). cargo test -p joule-code-cascade green; conformance pack still passes.
