config not loaded

Error message

config not loaded

What it means

applyEditCustomProviderSave is called before any config was loaded into the TUI model (m.existingCfg is nil), so there is nothing to mutate or save. Normally the model loads config at startup; this sentinel means the edit/save flow ran without that initialization. The message is also mirrored to m.formError as 'failed to save: config not loaded'.

Solutions

1. Load a config first (open the provider TUI through the normal flow so the config is loaded before editing)
2. Do not call applyEditCustomProviderSave before config initialization; re-enter the TUI to reload state
3. Check that the TUI's init path ran loadOrCreateConfig successfully before attempting a save
