Module ner 

Named Entity Recognition (NER) engine — CE-4 GLiNER zero-shot NER.

Two-layer extraction pipeline:

1. Rule-based pre-pass — regex extraction of dates, URLs, UUIDs, emails, IPs. Always on, zero latency, no model download required.
2. GLiNER ONNX engine — zero-shot NER via GLiNER-medium ONNX INT8 (52 MB). Opt-in per namespace, lazy-loaded on first use.

Extracted entities are stored as tags: entity:person:Alice, entity:org:Anthropic.
