Update version to 0.1.22 and fix system metric status calculation

- Fix /tmp usage status to use proper thresholds instead of hardcoded Ok status
- Fix wear level status to use configurable thresholds instead of hardcoded values
- Add dedicated tmp_status field to SystemWidget for proper /tmp status display
- Remove host-level hourglass icon during service operations
- Implement immediate service status updates after start/stop/restart commands
- Remove active users display and collection from NixOS section
- Fix immediate host status aggregation transmission to dashboard

+**Current Status - October 27, 2025:**
 - All keyboard navigation features working correctly ✅
 - Service selection cursor implemented with focus-aware highlighting ✅
 - Panel scrolling fixed for System, Services, and Backup panels ✅
 - Build display working: "Build: 25.05.20251004.3bcc93c" ✅
-- Agent version display working: "Agent: 3kvc03nd" ✅
+- Agent version display working: "Agent: v0.1.17" ✅
 - Cross-host version comparison implemented ✅
 - Automated binary release system working ✅
 - SMART data consolidated into disk collector ✅
 
+**RESOLVED - Remote Rebuild Functionality:**
+- ✅ **System Rebuild**: Now uses simple SSH + tmux popup approach
+- ✅ **Process Isolation**: Rebuild runs independently via SSH, survives agent/dashboard restarts
+- ✅ **Configuration**: SSH user and rebuild alias configurable in dashboard config
+- ✅ **Service Control**: Works correctly for start/stop/restart of services
+
+**Solution Implemented:**
+- Replaced complex SystemRebuild command infrastructure with direct tmux popup
+- Uses `tmux display-popup "ssh -tt {user}@{hostname} 'bash -ic {alias}'"`
+- Configurable SSH user and rebuild alias in dashboard config
+- Eliminates all agent crashes during rebuilds
+- Simple, reliable, and follows standard tmux interface patterns

+# Hardcoded Values Removed - Configuration Summary
+
+## ✅ All Hardcoded Values Converted to Configuration
+
+### **1. SystemD Nginx Check Interval**
+- **Before**: `nginx_check_interval_seconds: 30` (hardcoded)
+- **After**: `nginx_check_interval_seconds: config.nginx_check_interval_seconds`
+- **NixOS Config**: `nginx_check_interval_seconds = 30;`
+
+### **2. ZMQ Transmission Interval**  
+- **Before**: `Duration::from_secs(1)` (hardcoded)
+- **After**: `Duration::from_secs(self.config.zmq.transmission_interval_seconds)`
+- **NixOS Config**: `transmission_interval_seconds = 1;`
+
+### **3. HTTP Timeouts in SystemD Collector**
+- **Before**: 
+  ```rust
+  .timeout(Duration::from_secs(10))
+  .connect_timeout(Duration::from_secs(10))
+  ```
+- **After**:
+  ```rust
+  .timeout(Duration::from_secs(self.config.http_timeout_seconds))
+  .connect_timeout(Duration::from_secs(self.config.http_connect_timeout_seconds))
+  ```
+- **NixOS Config**: 
+  ```nix
+  http_timeout_seconds = 10;
+  http_connect_timeout_seconds = 10;
+  ```
+
+## **Configuration Structure Changes**
+
+### **SystemdConfig** (agent/src/config/mod.rs)
+```rust
+pub struct SystemdConfig {
+    // ... existing fields ...
+    pub nginx_check_interval_seconds: u64,      // NEW
+    pub http_timeout_seconds: u64,              // NEW
+    pub http_connect_timeout_seconds: u64,      // NEW
+}
+```
+
+### **ZmqConfig** (agent/src/config/mod.rs)
+```rust
+pub struct ZmqConfig {
+    // ... existing fields ...
+    pub transmission_interval_seconds: u64,     // NEW
+}
+```
+
+## **NixOS Configuration Updates**
+
+### **ZMQ Section** (hosts/common/cm-dashboard.nix)
+```nix
+zmq = {
+  # ... existing fields ...
+  transmission_interval_seconds = 1;           # NEW
+};
+```
+
+### **SystemD Section** (hosts/common/cm-dashboard.nix)
+```nix
+systemd = {
+  # ... existing fields ...
+  nginx_check_interval_seconds = 30;           # NEW  
+  http_timeout_seconds = 10;                   # NEW
+  http_connect_timeout_seconds = 10;           # NEW
+};
+```
+
+## **Benefits**
+
+✅ **No hardcoded values** - All timing/timeout values configurable  
+✅ **Consistent configuration** - Everything follows NixOS config pattern  
+✅ **Environment-specific tuning** - Can adjust timeouts per deployment  
+✅ **Maintainability** - No magic numbers scattered in code  
+✅ **Testing flexibility** - Can configure different values for testing  
+
+## **Runtime Behavior**
+
+All previously hardcoded values now respect configuration:
+- **Nginx latency checks**: Every 30s (configurable)
+- **ZMQ transmission**: Every 1s (configurable)  
+- **HTTP requests**: 10s timeout (configurable)
+- **HTTP connections**: 10s timeout (configurable)
+
+The codebase is now **100% configuration-driven** with no hardcoded timing values.
