model_info.id not provided

Error message

model_info.id not provided

What it means

Generic sentinel guard in the proxy's model update endpoint (/model/update). The request body was accepted and deserialized, but its model_info object has no id field, so the endpoint cannot identify which deployment in the DB or router to update. Fires when a client PATCHes/POSTs a model with model_params lacking model_info.id. Fix by including model_info.id in the request payload.
