The managed-artifact materializer stages a HuggingFace snapshot into a directory (.artifacts/huggingface/<key>/snapshot/). That is the right load target for directory-consuming backends (transformers, vLLM, diffusers, ...), but PrimaryArtifactSpec inferred a managed artifact from ANY HuggingFace-shaped model reference regardless of backend. A single-file backend such as llama.cpp or whisper was therefore handed the snapshot directory instead of the weight file and failed to load it. The /import-model importer already guards this with a backend allow-list (managedArtifactBackends), but the loader-side inference did not. Move the allow-list into core/config as IsManagedArtifactBackend and apply it in PrimaryArtifactSpec: only directory-consuming backends may have an artifact inferred from a bare reference; every other backend stays on the legacy download-to-file path. An explicit artifacts: block still bypasses the gate, where single-file snapshot resolution handles the load path. The importer now shares the same predicate, so both paths agree on which backends auto-materialize.
