refactor: move decision listener URL from build-time env var to runtime config

[agrogov]

Replaces the hard-coded NEXT_PUBLIC_DECISION_LISTENER_URL environment variable usage across all components with the centralized runtime config system (useRuntimeConfig hook). This ensures the decision listener URL is fetched from the server at runtime (via /api/config) rather than baked in at build time, consistent with how wsUrl and apiUrl are already handled.

Changes

src/app/api/config/route.ts

• Added decisionListenerUrl to the runtime config API response, sourced from NEXT_PUBLIC_DECISION_LISTENER_URL env var (defaults to http://localhost:8765).

src/hooks/use-runtime-config.ts

• Added decisionListenerUrl field to the RuntimeConfig interface.
• Added getDecisionListenerUrl() synchronous helper (mirrors existing getWsUrl() / getApiUrl() pattern).

src/app/tracker/page.tsx

• Removed local DECISION_LISTENER_URL constant.
• Uses useRuntimeConfig() hook to obtain the URL at runtime.
• Guards fetchConfig with isRuntimeConfigLoading to avoid fetching before the URL is available.
• Updated useCallback dependency arrays accordingly.

src/components/anthology/entity-chip.tsx

• Removed local DECISION_LISTENER_URL constant.
• Uses useRuntimeConfig() hook; derives decisionListenerUrl from config.
• Updated enrichment SSE URL construction and useCallback deps.

src/components/anthology/meeting-anthology.tsx

• Removed local DECISION_LISTENER_URL constant.
• Uses useRuntimeConfig() hook for decision listener URL.
• Updated all fetch/SSE calls and dependency arrays (load, connectSSE, fetchSummary).

src/components/decisions/decisions-panel.tsx

• Removed local DECISION_LISTENER_URL constant.
• Uses useRuntimeConfig() hook for decision listener URL.
• Updated SSE connection and history-load fetch calls and dependency arrays.

Motivation

• Consistency: All external service URLs now flow through the same runtime config mechanism.
• Deployability: The decision listener URL can be changed per-environment without rebuilding the frontend.
• Single source of truth: Eliminates 4 duplicate DECISION_LISTENER_URL constants scattered across components.

File	Change
src/app/api/config/route.ts	Expose decisionListenerUrl in config API
src/hooks/use-runtime-config.ts	Add field + sync getter
src/app/tracker/page.tsx	Use runtime config hook
src/components/anthology/entity-chip.tsx	Use runtime config hook
src/components/anthology/meeting-anthology.tsx	Use runtime config hook
src/components/decisions/decisions-panel.tsx	Use runtime config hook

Test Plan

• Verify /api/config response includes decisionListenerUrl
• Verify tracker page loads config from the listener using the runtime URL
• Verify entity chip enrichment SSE connects to the correct URL
• Verify meeting anthology SSE and summary fetch use the correct URL
• Verify decisions panel SSE and history load use the correct URL
• Verify fallback to http://localhost:8765 works when env var is not set

Block panel network calls until runtime config loads

Because useRuntimeConfig() starts with config === null on cold loads, this fallback URL is always used on first render; the panel then immediately runs its history fetch and SSE connect against http://localhost:8765 before /api/config resolves. In environments where the real listener URL is not localhost, users will make wrong-host requests (to their own machine) and can see flaky initial panel state; this should be gated on runtime-config readiness the same way tracker/page.tsx does.

Block anthology network calls until runtime config loads

This fallback causes MeetingAnthology to hit http://localhost:8765 during the first render while runtime config is still loading, and its effects then start /decisions/.../all, SSE, and summary traffic against that wrong host before switching later. When the configured listener URL differs from localhost, this creates deterministic bad requests and transiently incorrect/empty data; the effects should wait until runtime config is resolved.
