Summary model recommendation is not ready yet

Error message

Summary model recommendation is not ready yet

What it means

In DownloadProgressStep's retry handler, the summary download invokes builtin_ai_download_model with selectedSummaryModel and throws before the invoke when that state is null. selectedSummaryModel is populated asynchronously from the model-recommendation flow, so clicking Retry before that resolves hits the guard. Note the size calculation two lines above already falls back to recommendedSummaryModel, but the download itself does not — an inconsistency that makes this reachable even when a recommendation exists.

Solutions

1. Disable the Retry button until selectedSummaryModel (or recommendedSummaryModel) is non-null.
2. Fall back to recommendedSummaryModel for the invoke, mirroring the getSummaryModelSizeMb call just above.
3. Await the recommendation when the onboarding step mounts and render a loading state until it resolves.
4. On failure, keep status 'error' with a message explaining the model suggestion hasn't loaded yet.

Example fix

// before
const modelName = selectedSummaryModel;
if (!modelName) {
  throw new Error('Summary model recommendation is not ready yet');
}
await invoke('builtin_ai_download_model', { modelName });

// after
const modelName = selectedSummaryModel ?? recommendedSummaryModel;
if (!modelName) {
  setSummaryState(p => ({ ...p, status: 'error', error: 'Model suggestion not loaded yet — try again in a moment.' }));
  return;
}
await invoke('builtin_ai_download_model', { modelName });
// and disable the button until a model name exists:
// <button disabled={!selectedSummaryModel && !recommendedSummaryModel}>Retry</button>

const model = selectedSummaryModel ?? recommendedSummaryModel;
if (!model) {
  setSummaryState(p => ({ ...p, status: 'error', error: 'Model recommendation still loading — try again shortly.' }));
  return;
}
await invoke('builtin_ai_download_model', { modelName: model });

const isModelName = (m: unknown): m is string => typeof m === 'string' && m.trim().length > 0;

try {
  await invoke('builtin_ai_download_model', { modelName: model });
} catch (e) {
  const msg = e instanceof Error ? e.message : String(e);
  setSummaryState(p => ({ ...p, status: 'error', error: msg }));
}

When it happens

Trigger: User clicks Retry on the summary download card before the async recommendation request resolves; the recommendation request failed silently leaving selectedSummaryModel null; component remounted mid-onboarding and state had not rehydrated.

Common situations: Slow backend recommendation on first launch, clicking through onboarding quickly, or a retried download after a network error where the recommendation promise was never re-fetched.
