bend co-lives with ecdsa-emit-pool on each foxhop production host.
When pool dies but bend stays up, .lsp cells pile un-emitted; bend
sits idle waiting for .ready bins that never arrive. Today's incident
took 30+ min to surface because feeder couldn't tell from bend health
alone — needed a separate SSH+pgrep per host.
Add pool/queue counts to (health) so one RPC returns the full picture:
(ok (load-avg L) (vram-free-mb V) (uptime-ms U)
(pool-procs P) (queue-ready R) (queue-emitting E) (queue-done D))
Helpers:
health-pool-procs pgrep -cf ecdsa-emit-pool
health-queue-count EXT ls $BEND_QUEUE_DIR/*.EXT | wc -l
BEND_QUEUE_DIR env var — set when bend is launched on a host with an
associated pool. Absent → queue counts return -1 (caller treats as
'unknown / not applicable').
Caller now has single-RPC view of bend + pool + queue health; feeder
can drop its separate SSH pool-watchdog probe in favor of the bend
(health) RPC field.
