Plan only -- nothing built. Three things it had to establish rather than
assume:

* the pod cores are python:3.12-slim, which is exactly what ACE-Step needs.
  The bundled standalone interpreter the local image requires (Ubuntu 22.04's
  system python is 3.10) is simply not a problem on a pod.
* ACE-Step cannot go in the `audio` profile: that one has no `.light` marker,
  so it builds on the FULL core, and 7 GB of unused CUDA plus a 6.4 GB venv is
  far over the measured ceiling (10.1 GB boots, 14.5 GB is refused).
* the `gguf` package is in requirements.txt but in NEITHER core.txt nor
  video.txt, and pod images install core.txt -- so no pod image can load an
  LTX-2.3 single file today.
