ROOT CAUSE: The factory was defaulting to 'ollama' when no provider
was configured, and docker-compose.yml was always setting OLLAMA_BASE_URL
even when using OpenAI. This caused the app to try connecting to Ollama
even when OpenAI was configured in the admin.
CRITICAL CHANGES:
1. lib/ai/factory.ts - Removed 'ollama' default fallback
- getTagsProvider() now throws error if AI_PROVIDER_TAGS not set
- getEmbeddingsProvider() now throws error if AI_PROVIDER_EMBEDDING not set
- Forces explicit configuration instead of silent fallback to Ollama
2. docker-compose.yml - Removed default OLLAMA_BASE_URL
- Changed: OLLAMA_BASE_URL=${OLLAMA_BASE_URL:-http://ollama:11434}
- To: OLLAMA_BASE_URL=${OLLAMA_BASE_URL}
- Only set if explicitly defined in .env.docker
3. Application name: Mento → Memento (correct spelling)
- Updated in: sidebar, README, deploy.sh, DOCKER_DEPLOYMENT.md
4. app/api/ai/config/route.ts - Return 'not set' instead of 'ollama'
- Makes it clear when provider is not configured
IMPACT: The app will now properly use OpenAI when configured in the
admin interface, instead of silently falling back to Ollama.
