 Runtime discovery fetches models (`GET /models`) and synthesizes model entries with local defaults.
 
+This path also works for local OpenAI-compatible servers that are not LM Studio. For example, set `LM_STUDIO_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1` to discover oMLX through the existing `/v1/models` flow. Do not configure oMLX as `ollama`: Ollama discovery uses native `/api/tags` and `/api/show` endpoints, not OpenAI `/v1/models`.
