Error updating public model groups: {e}

Error message

Error updating public model groups: {e}

What it means

Catch-all around the public-model-groups update: unexpected exceptions while loading config, applying the new group list, or persisting are logged and re-raised as this 500. HTTPException (the 403 role guard) passes through unchanged.
