Three AI dependency failures in one night (retired Gemini model IDs, depleted Gemini balance, unpayable OpenAI account) each surfaced only as a single ERROR log line that nobody was watching. Add app/internal/ai_health.py, a shared in-memory registry that transcription.py and llm_correlator.py report into on every call (success and failure), distinguishing permanent conditions (dead model, dead billing) which alert immediately from transient ones (rate limits, network blips) which only alert after they persist. Alerts POST once per degradation episode and once on recovery to an optional Discord webhook (AI_ALERT_WEBHOOK_URL), reusing alerter.py's httpx pattern. State is exposed unauthenticated at GET /health/ai alongside the existing /health. Closes logan/server-26#14
