fix: prevent Ollama config refresh resets

 The plugin probes the configured local endpoint and known Docker endpoints, and tests a configured remote endpoint. A successful connection reports the Ollama version and installed model count. The active local endpoint continues to drive chat, status, load, and runtime telemetry. A URL saved from the dashboard takes precedence over the initial `OLLAMA_HOST` environment fallback, so the field can correct or replace an inherited container setting.
 
-When both distinct local and remote endpoints are online, downloading or re-downloading a model opens a destination chooser. The selected target is recorded on the job and the pull is sent to that endpoint. Remote downloads do not alter the local installed-model inventory. The connection list marks saved rows and provides a **Remove saved** action with confirmation. Removing the saved Local endpoint clears the active override and restores `OLLAMA_HOST` or automatic discovery. Removing Remote only clears the saved remote URL; detected-but-unsaved rows cannot be removed. If Local and Remote contain the same URL, the dashboard marks the duplicate and treats it as one download target; enter the actual second Ollama server URL to enable independent remote downloads.
+When both distinct local and remote endpoints are online, downloading or re-downloading a model opens a destination chooser. The selected target is recorded on the job and the pull is sent to that endpoint. Remote downloads do not alter the local installed-model inventory. The plugin writes this configuration atomically and fixes the dashboard status-poll race that could let a slower older `/status` response overwrite a newer saved state. The config root is captured once per dashboard process from `HERMES_HOME`/Hermes home, rather than changing between requests. Removing the saved Local endpoint clears the active override and restores `OLLAMA_HOST` or automatic discovery. Removing Remote only clears the saved remote URL; detected-but-unsaved rows cannot be removed.
