Alt+A cannot add a provider on macOS with a non-US keyboard #482

Description

@pratikbuilds

Problem

/model lists connected accounts only. Adding a provider is Alt+A. On macOS, Option+A often arrives as a composed character instead of a modifier chord, so the model filter swallows it and add-provider never opens.

A US-layout map (Option+A → å) does not fix this. Other layouts emit a different glyph, so a static table will keep missing keyboards.

Reproduction

  1. On macOS, use a non-US input source.
  2. Open /model with at least one provider already connected.
  3. Press Option+A.

Expected: add-provider list.
Actual: the filter gets a composed character; the picker stays on models.

Notes

The handler requires meta/option plus key name a. Type-to-filter runs first and claims unmodified printables.

Possible directions: resolve Option+A from the current macOS input source at runtime, or add a /connect command so this path does not depend on a letter chord.
