refactor(providers): declare Responses capabilities

@@ -49,13 +49,6 @@ Use `/model` to inspect the current runtime model:
 
 The response shows the current session's model and preset, plus the available preset names. Named presets come from the top-level `modelPresets` config and are the recommended way to configure model choices. `default` is always available and represents the model settings from direct `agents.defaults.*` fields.
 
-`/model <preset>` expects one of those preset names, not a provider model ID or
-the preset's display label. For example, if `modelPresets.local` uses the Ollama
-model `llama3.2`, run `/model local`, not `/model llama3.2`. If a model is currently
-configured only as an inline fallback, save it as a named preset before selecting
-it manually. Fallback order controls automatic failover; it is not a list of raw
-model IDs accepted by `/model`.

 to model settings when setup is incomplete.
 
-When two or more named model presets are configured, the badge shows a dropdown
-indicator and acts as a preset selector. Click or tap it, then choose the preset
-you want from the menu. For keyboard access, focus the badge and press
-<kbd>Enter</kbd> or <kbd>Space</kbd> to open the menu, use the arrow keys to move,
-and press <kbd>Enter</kbd> to select.

-The selection applies to future turns in the current session and persists with
-that session; it does not change the default for other sessions. Only named
-presets from **Settings → Models** are selectable. An inline fallback model that
-has not been saved as a named preset is not a separate manual choice. Save it as
-a named preset to make it selectable. The same switch is available in chat with
-`/model <preset>`; see [Chat Commands: Model Presets](./chat-commands.md#model-presets).

 For image generation, configure an image provider first and then use the WebUI

 for provider setup and output behavior.
