- #123571: \[Bug\]: re-running hermes memory setup for holographic offers schema defaults as current and overwrites its saved db_path / auto_extract
- PR #123572: fix(memory-setup): offer a provider's saved settings, not schema defaults, when re-running setup
- PR #123599: fix(memory-setup): offer saved provider config on re-run

When re-running the memory setup wizard, it incorrectly presents schema defaults instead of the user's previously saved provider settings, potentially overwriting values like db_path and auto_extract. These items address that bug.
