Verify domain status refresh against Kilo-Org/cloud#5437 and optional auto-commit against cloud#5529. Follow compaction setting move #14045 and current Mermaid support. Remove MiniMax free IDs absent from the live catalog on 2026-09-14, not merely from the expired cloud#5588 provider override: cloud#5788 and cloud#5797 had continued them through OpenRouter.

What Problem This Solves
The compaction model selector lived in Settings > Context > Compaction, while the other per-purpose model selectors (default, small, subagent, autocomplete) live in Settings > Models. Users who look for model routing in the Models tab could not find the compaction model, as requested in #13575.
Why This Change Was Made
The compaction model is a model-routing choice, not a context-tuning option. Putting it next to the other per-purpose selectors keeps all "which model runs X" controls in one place. The Compaction section keeps a short link to Models so users who tune compaction still find it.
