Provider deviations live in a versioned provider profile

The harness speaks the official Responses API, true to spec. Anything a provider does that the spec does not say (Coral included) is isolated in a declarative, versioned provider profile, one source of truth per provider: capabilities, request-shaping deviations, response and stream normalization adapters applied at the transport/decoder boundary (so everything above sees spec-true data), cache and pricing policy, and the settings, signals and functions the provider exposes. Adding a provider means adding one validated profile; profiles are immutable once loaded and verified before acceptance (schema validation plus an optional live conformance receipt). RC-08..RC-10 build it.
