Make connecting any model a config step, not a code change:
- models.toml named profiles (api_key_env names an env var, never the key)
- providers gain available_models(); add preflight + --list-models/--check
- /ai list and /ai models in-room; client probes local Ollama for
/ai models when no agent is running, and /ai list hints to summon one
- docs/providers.md provider guide + examples/echo_provider.py
- README: command table, AI section, layout updated
