 ### Changed
 
+- Added spatial navigation between the Model Hub sidebar and model list using left/right arrow keys
 - Removed "Chat about this" option from question dialogs
 - Redesigned ask dialogs with fixed height, removed explicit Next button, and simplified headers
 - Rewrote the task tool prompt for the new wire schema and to push callers toward the most specific agent type: read-only research is directed to `agent: "scout"`, and omitting `agent` is framed as an explicit decision that no listed specialist fits.
 - Task rendering now keeps the `⟨agent⟩` type badge on live progress and finished result rows (previously it vanished after the streaming call preview), and the Task header shows only the spawn count instead of repeating the per-item agent types.
-- Redesigned `/model` into a fullscreen alternate-screen Model Hub (the `/settings` idiom) with full mouse support: a sidebar of scopes (recently used, role management, all models, per-provider), a metadata-aligned model table (role chips with thinking glyphs, context window, per-M cost), and inline role/thinking assignment strips instead of the old nested menus. Providers without credentials are listed dimmed and forward to `/login` when activated, replacing the "Only showing models with configured API keys" warning; up/down hops providers even while typing (Tab toggles row navigation), and searching grays out and skips providers without matches.

Providers without credentials are listed dimmed and forward to `/login` when activated, replacing the "Only showing models with configured API keys" warning; you can now use arrow keys to navigate between the sidebar and model list, and searching grays out and skips providers without matches.
 - OAuth logins now run inside a cancellable login dialog (Esc aborts the flow and restores the editor) instead of an inescapable pairing prompt, and the model hub only reopens after a successful login.
