 - **BREAKING**: Renamed the `[model]` section in `config.toml` to `[inference]` and reshaped it from a single `ollama_url` string into the providers schema described above. There is no backward-compatibility shim for the section name: if you had a custom `[model]` section, rename it to `[inference]` after upgrading; a flat `ollama_url` inside `[inference]` is migrated automatically.
 - Active model selection is now strictly Option-typed end to end: when nothing is installed and nothing is persisted, Thuki refuses to dispatch requests and surfaces a "Pick a model" prompt instead of falling back to a hardcoded slug. The previous `DEFAULT_MODEL_NAME` constant has been removed.
