Describe the Bug

Thanks for this release! The tag styling is a great idea!

There appears to be some issues/inconsistency with feature: using gemma3:4b the generated tags style is very inconsistent, I get different styles on multiple runs trying to index the same page, but then, when switching to gemma3:12b, the generated tags are stable (they do obey my config) however they don't always get written in the database correctly.

I have configured my tags to always show as "lower case with hyphens". In the first example below, the app correctly got a response for "bookmark-manager", but in the web UI it shows as "bookmark manager". In the second example the tag "data-analysis" shows in the UI as "Data Analysis".

info: [inference][12818] Inferring tag for bookmark "po0gh0y51mowajqi2f9iqahx" used 531 tokens and inferred: bookmark-manager,self-hosting,open-source,ai,productivity
info: [inference][12860] Inferring tag for bookmark "cm0ydwnumbo1tqwol0i7ules" used 1602 tokens and inferred: data-visualization,infographics,data-analysis,visual-communication

Please let me know your thoughts.

Steps to Reproduce

Set LOG_LEVEL to "info".
Add any link.
Observe the output of "[inference]" job.
Compare with the web UI.

Expected Behaviour

The tags should be consistent with my configuration.
