Code review

Found 1 issue:

1. [HIGH:75] Case-sensitive backend comparison in warning suppression condition. The PR adds && env_val != backend at line 101 to suppress the warning when both values are identical. However, the comparison is case-sensitive, while the rest of the code normalizes backend names to lowercase (line 112). If a user has LLM_BACKEND=Nearai in .env and llm_backend="nearai" in config.toml, the condition evaluates to true and the warning incorrectly fires despite both referring to the same backend. The fix should compare lowercase values: && env_val.to_ascii_lowercase() != backend.to_ascii_lowercase().

   // Warn operators when a DB-persisted value silently overrides LLM_BACKEND.
   // Skip the warning when both values are identical — this is the normal
   // state after `ironclaw models set-provider`, which intentionally writes
   // to both config.toml and .env for immediate effect.
   if backend_source == "db:llm_backend"
       && let Ok(env_val) = std::env::var("LLM_BACKEND")
       && !env_val.is_empty()
       && env_val != backend  // ← case-sensitive comparison
