Rebuilding a DB-stored agent or team now reuses the live model instance from the registry instead of reconstructing it from scratch. Connection parameters like `azure_endpoint` and `base_url`, along with credentials, now survive that round trip rather than being dropped to `None`. Agents backed by Azure or any custom-endpoint provider keep working after a reload instead of losing the settings they need to connect.
