Authoring writes a FILE, not a settings field, so nothing on the wire announces
it — `settings/changed` covers the default moving, never the directory. The
chip therefore kept the roster it read when it first mounted, and a preset
authored to be used was missing from the one screen that starts sessions.
The page that changes the directory now says so, and every surface reading the
same roster re-reads it. The chip subscribes rather than being reached from the
outer scope, because it is registered later, under `conversation`/`sessions`.
