Active RunPods endpoint confirms the team-account credential is working (one team-account pod successfully `deploying` right now). The original failure is purely capacity. I have what I need; drafting the recovery plan.

## Goal
Implement Chen et al. (arXiv:2507.21509) persona-vector extraction end-to-end on `Qwen/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct` for the **evil** trait, extract the project's centroid-difference direction for the same trait/model, and report cosine similarity between the two directions at layers {10, 15, 20, 25}. Headline number is cos at L20.

"""Run Chen-style persona-vector extraction vs the project's centroid recipe.

Experiment: Sagan #363
    Implement Chen et al. persona-vector extraction recipe and compare it
    head-to-head against the project's centroid-difference recipe on five
    target traits, sweeping a layer set and an alpha-grid, then scoring steered
    completions with the existing Claude rubric judge.

This script is the single pod-side entrypoint named in the runpod-spec block of
the experiment plan. It runs sequentially through:
