+## Settings moved from sidebar panel to modal
+
+### Changes
+
+- **New file: `src/settings-modal.ts`**
+  - Created `SettingsModal` class extending Obsidian `Modal`
+  - Contains Ollama URL, Connect button, and Model dropdown settings
+  - Reads shared connection state from the plugin instance
+  - Helper method `populateModelDropdown()` for reusable dropdown population
+
+- **`src/chat-view.ts`**
+  - Removed inline settings panel from bottom of chat sidebar
+  - Added a gear (⚙) settings button next to the Send button in the input row
+  - Clicking the gear button opens the `SettingsModal`
+  - Auto-connects to Ollama when the chat view opens via `plugin.connect()`
+  - Removed unused imports (`Setting`, `testConnection`, `listModels`)
+  - Added imports for `setIcon` and `SettingsModal`
+
+- **`src/main.ts`**
+  - Added runtime connection state fields: `connectionStatus`, `connectionMessage`, `availableModels`
+  - Added `connect()` method that tests connection, fetches available models, and stores results
+  - Added `testConnection` and `listModels` imports
+
+- **`styles.css`**
+  - Removed `.ai-organizer-settings-panel` styles
+  - Added `.ai-organizer-input-buttons` vertical button group layout
+  - Added `.ai-organizer-settings-btn` with transparent background and hover state
+
+### Summary
+
+- "Test Connection" renamed to "Connect"
+- Settings are now in a modal opened via a gear button in the sidebar input row
+- Auto-connect runs when the chat view opens, pre-populating models for the settings modal
