* refactor(native-chat): one rule for what a no-pick session says of its configured default ACP's rule (only a new session that restored no model pick and was sent none runs its config's default; an effort it picked says nothing) moves beside the catalog entry types so other agents' adapters report through the same step. An empty listing (a signed-out agent) now says nothing instead of "no listed model", so it can never retire a saved default. * feat(native-chat): check Pi's project config before naming its default model Pi reads `.pi/settings.json` in the chat's folder and loads project extensions from `.pi/extensions` (and the `extensions`/`packages` lists). A settings file that sets defaultProvider, defaultModel, defaultThinkingLevel, modelThinkingLevels or enabledModels, loads extension code, or can't be parsed counts as the project picking the model; extension code may register providers or set the model itself. Key names come from Pi 1.0.4's own settings manager and docs, read without running Pi. * feat(native-chat): a new Pi chat names the model and thinking level Pi starts on Pi's model listing marks no model as the one it runs, so a new Pi chat with no saved pick showed "Model" and then changed to the model its session reported. A new Pi session (not one resumed or forked from a saved conversation) that restored no model pick and was sent none now reports the model and, unless it picked one, the thinking level it started on, through the same host step as Grok, OpenCode and OMP. The host saves them as the account's default behind the project-config check, so the next new Pi chat names them on its first frame. A signed-out Pi, which lists no model, saves nothing. * fix(native-chat): a newer, coarser effort menu keeps the effort a chat ran The saved list takes each model's effort menu from the newer listing. Pi's `--list-models` menu stops at high, while a chat's own menu adds xhigh or max for models whose thinking map allows them. After a background re-list, a learned xhigh was no longer in the menu, so the first frame dropped it. When the configured effort is only in the other listing's menu, that menu is kept. * fix(native-chat): Pi teaches only the model and thinking level it started on A Pi chat re-derived its configured default from Pi's current state on every options read, so a model an extension switched to mid-chat (extensions can call setModel) was saved as the account default, and the next new chat named the wrong model. The choice is now computed once, after start-up restores the chat's saved picks, and every later read reports that snapshot. A pick made in the chat no longer matters to it. Tests cover an extension switch, a pick made in the chat, a forked chat, and a learned xhigh surviving a newer re-list.
