- Remove config.AgentConfig.Ready() — dead after the refactor (no non-test
  callers), and its doc comment ("route registration and capabilities gate on
  this") was now false. EffectiveAgent.Ready() carries the same logic and IS
  used, see below.
- agentHolder now uses eff.Ready() and eff.APIKey instead of an inline check and
  a redundant apiKey field it held separately. This makes EffectiveAgent.APIKey/
  Ready() production-used rather than test-only, drops the duplicated readiness
  check, and simplifies newAgentHolder's signature.
- settingsPayload no longer swallows an EffectiveAgent error into a misleading
  empty "effective" view (which would read as "nothing configured"). It returns
  the error; the handlers surface it as a 500. EffectiveAgent re-reads the row
  GetInstanceSettings just returned, so a failure there is a real DB fault.
- Frontend streamChat handles 503 (assistant disabled at runtime) distinctly
  from 404 (endpoint absent) — the backend returns 503 AGENT_DISABLED now, which
  the old code mislabelled.
- Fixed the api.go comment that still said a disabled request gets a 404 — it's
  a 503.
- updateSettings uses the shared parseNullable[bool] instead of a bespoke
  parseNullableBool (now removed).
- NewRunner drops its empty-spec guard; agentmodel.Resolve already owns that
  check, so one place decides what a valid spec is.
- rebuild-on-resolve-error now documents WHY it keeps the current Runner rather
  than tearing down a working assistant on a transient DB blip: the state is
  persisted, the next rebuild reconciles, and killing a live assistant on a read
  hiccup is worse than a brief stale window.

Not changed: the store's version-conflict fallback returning GetInstanceSettings'
error instead of ErrVersionConflict when that read also fails. That's the exact
pattern every other version-guarded update uses (gardens/objects/plants); making
only this one differ would be the inconsistency. A DB read failing immediately
after the guarded UPDATE on the same local SQLite file is a disk-fault edge case,
and surfacing that error is defensible.

Moves the agent model out of env-only config into an admin-editable Settings
section, and enforces is_admin for the first time — it has been in the schema
since migration 0001, plumbed to the client, and checked nowhere.

Backend:
- Migration 0010: instance_settings, a single-row (CHECK id=1) table — pansy's
  first instance-level state. Holds agent_model ('' = inherit env) and
  agent_enabled (NULL = inherit env), version-guarded like every mutable row.
  SECRETS STAY IN ENV: OLLAMA_CLOUD_API_KEY is never stored here.
- requireAdmin at the service seam (authoritative) plus a cheap middleware
  early-403. Non-admin gets 403, not 404 — settings existence isn't masked.
- EffectiveAgent resolves DB-over-env (model, enabled); key always from env.
- The live Runner is hot-swapped, not built once. agentHolder holds it behind
  an atomic.Pointer; the chat routes are now registered UNCONDITIONALLY and
  nil-check agent.get(), so a settings change turns the assistant on/off/onto a
  new model with no restart and no race against in-flight readers. /capabilities
  reads the pointer, so it reports what's live, not what booted.
- internal/agentmodel is a new leaf package holding the one place that knows how
  to turn a spec into a model. Both agent (to run) and service (to validate a
  spec before storing it) import it; it can't live in agent, which imports
  service. Settings PATCH validates the spec via Parse, so a typo is a 400 now
  rather than a broken assistant on the next turn.

Frontend:
- /settings route (admin guard), a Settings page (model field, tri-state
  enabled, live status), nav link shown only to admins.
- useCapabilities drops staleTime:Infinity — the assistant can now change under
  a running page — and the settings save invalidates it.

Contract change: chat routes always exist, so "assistant off" is a runtime 503
+ capabilities:false, not a missing route. Updated the test that asserted the
old shape.

Verified live against the built binary: disable flips capabilities to false and
logs it; re-enable with a new model swaps it back; a bad spec is rejected 400;
the setting persists across a restart. Swap is race-clean under `go test -race`.

Docs: README (precedence + key-stays-in-env), DESIGN (decision + routes),
CLAUDE (don't re-add conditional route registration; key never in the DB).
