How a Mac render farm actually works.

A useful Mac render farm is not a pile of unmanaged SSH sessions. It is a control plane that admits typed jobs, leases capacity, runs agents with pause controls, and returns verified artifacts.

Media job lifecycle: estimate, create, Mac lease, render, webhook verify — Control-plane loop for a Mac render farm: estimate → create → lease → render → verify. Not SSH and hope.
