Subject: [PATCH] fix(k8s): use Recreate strategy for neuron-mcp deployments
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Single-node k3s cluster cannot schedule a second pod during rolling update
(512Mi request × 2 exceeds available memory). Recreate terminates the old
pod before starting the new one, trading brief downtime for schedulability.
