Docs: Document dynamic model fetching feature #12483

@continue

Description

@continue

Summary

PR #12046 added support for dynamically fetching provider models, but this feature is not documented anywhere.

What needs to be documented

  • How to use the refresh button to fetch available models from providers
  • Supported providers: Ollama, OpenRouter, Anthropic, Gemini, and others with listModels()
  • How fetched models are merged with hardcoded models
  • What properties are auto-detected: contextLength, maxTokens, supportsTools
  • How these settings are persisted to config.yaml

Suggested location

  • docs/customize/model-roles/chat.mdx (already touched by the PR) or
  • A new section in getting-started or customize docs

User benefit

Users can now dynamically discover and add models from their providers without manually looking up model IDs and capabilities.
