Desktop will use these but desktop support still needs some iteration

Yeah main thing is you can't add context or request_params for models through the ui. It functionally works in desktop with it configured through the environment variables only at this point, no way to visually see/edit them etc.

k thanks, but this note is okay for now? I wasn't able to get the env var to apply to a Desktop session launched from the Dock (tried in my .zshrc file)
