jonandClaude Opus 4.8 6755a2477d fix(status): /status blocked the event loop and outran its own client timeout
The backend logged 200 OK for polls the client had already timed out on.
is_running() waited 2s for an Ollama that ships OFF (now 0.5s), is_available()
spawned 'ollama --version' every call and that command blocks ~5s when Ollama is
wedged (now cached), and both ran synchronously inside an async def, stalling the
event loop on every poll while the UI polls continuously (now to_thread).

Measured with Ollama's port blackholed: /status 5.89s -> 0.64s, concurrent GET /
stalled -> 0.06s. Poll timeout in nexus_window.py raised 2s -> 5s for margin.

"""Open the NexusOS UI in a native window.
Uses pywebview, which renders via the WebView2 runtime on Windows (already
present on Win10/11) -- a real app window with no browser chrome and none of the
Edge --app profile cold-start. Blocks until the window is closed; the launcher
waits on this process and stops the services when it exits.
The window opens IMMEDIATELY on a loading page and navigates to the app once the
backend answers, rather than waiting up to 40s with nothing on screen and then
appearing. One window the whole time: nothing pops up and vanishes, and there is
no moment where the user is left wondering whether the command did anything.
Falls back to the default browser if pywebview/WebView2 is unavailable, staying
alive so the launcher doesn't tear the services down underneath it.
