Subject: [PATCH] feat(ui): remove model selector dropdown - single model only
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

There's only one deployed model (samosaChaat). Drop the 'nanochat · base' select dropdown from the Sidebar and replace the header model badge with a static 'samosaChaat' label. Removes unused MODEL_OPTIONS / setModel / ChevronDown imports.
