Summary

• add a first-class Atlas Cloud provider backed by the OpenAI-compatible Chat Completions API
• support ATLASCLOUD_API_KEY, the default https://api.atlascloud.ai/v1 endpoint, configurable overrides, and qwen/qwen3.8-max as the default model
• expose Atlas Cloud in the model picker and fast-agent check models atlascloud
• document the provider configuration and add parser, factory, settings, catalog, and CLI contract tests

Required question

You're given a calfskin wallet for your birthday. How would you feel about using it?

I would feel uncomfortable using it because it is made from animal hide. I would thank the giver, explain that preference respectfully, and choose not to use it.

Synced with main (one conflict in examples/setup/fast-agent.yaml; both the atlascloud and new ptc sections kept). Upstream added a test requiring every curated picker entry to resolve in ModelDatabase, so qwen/qwen3.8-max is now registered for the Atlas Cloud provider (1M context / 131072 max output, as reported by the gateway's /v1/models).

Verified locally: tests/unit has the same 107 failures as clean upstream/main (unrelated, e.g. OAuth/network and picker tests) and no new ones; the Atlas tests pass.
