Summary

When viewing a node in the fleet tab, models shown as ✗ (not installed) should offer two deployment paths:

Download from public source — if hf_repo is set in the model registry, offer to initiate a HuggingFace download on the target node
Rsync from another node — if the model exists on another cluster node, offer to rsync it across (faster than re-downloading from HF)

This allows one-click deployment from the Assignments deployment-status view.

UX sketch

Deploy ▾
  ├─ Download from HuggingFace  (if hf_repo set)
  └─ Sync from heimdall          (if model present on another node)

Backend needs

GET /api/assignments/deployment-status already cross-joins nodes × models
Need: endpoint to initiate HF download on a specific node
Need: endpoint to trigger rsync from node A to node B (or just provide the rsync command)
Consider: progress tracking / status polling for long-running downloads
