Subject: [PATCH] fix(cli): ensure footer line 2 always renders
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Show '^0  v0  $0.000' instead of '—' when no token data yet
- Always show model slot ('awaiting model' as placeholder)
- Add minHeight={1} to prevent line collapse
