/**
 * REST API server for cortex-engine.
 *
 * Lightweight HTTP layer on top of the same ToolContext used by the MCP server.
 * Uses Node's built-in http module — zero additional dependencies.
 *
 * Routes map directly to cortex tool handlers, so the REST API always stays
 * in sync with MCP capabilities. Any plugin tools are also exposed.
 *
 * Usage:
 *   fozikio serve --rest --port 3000
 *   cortex-engine --rest --port 3000
