The CDN URL is now hardcoded at startup and cannot be influenced by request parameters.\n\nA new `html_source` parameter is available on `Agent.to_web` and `create_web_app` for applications that need to customize the UI source (e.g., for enterprise environments, offline usage, or custom UI builds).
