Model "${wanted}" is ambiguous in Trae CN model menu: ${cont

Error message

Model "${wanted}" is ambiguous in Trae CN model menu: ${containsMatches.map(item => item.Model).join(', ')}

What it means

selectTraeModel matches the requested model name against the model menu using normalized labels. When there is no exact match but multiple fuzzy (substring) matches exist, the choice is ambiguous and the library throws this ArgumentError listing all candidates so you can disambiguate.

Solutions

1. Use the full exact model name as shown in the Trae CN menu
2. Pick one of the listed ambiguous candidates verbatim
3. Check the model menu contents first with a read/inspect command

Example fix

// before
selectTraeModel(page, 'deepseek')
// after
selectTraeModel(page, 'deepseek-r1')

const models = await page.evaluate(listModelsScript());
const wantedKey = normalizeModelLabel(wanted);
const matches = models.filter(m => normalizeModelLabel(m.Model).includes(wantedKey));
if (!matches.some(m => normalizeModelLabel(m.Model) === wantedKey) && matches.length > 1)
  throw new Error(`Ambiguous model "${wanted}": ${matches.map(m=>m.Model).join(', ')}`);

const isUnambiguousModel = (models, wanted) => {
  const key = normalizeModelLabel(wanted);
  return models.some(m => normalizeModelLabel(m.Model) === key) ||
    models.filter(m => normalizeModelLabel(m.Model).includes(key)).length === 1;
};

try { await selectTraeModel(page, name); } catch (e) { if (/is ambiguous/.test(e.message)) { console.error(e.message + '\nPass the full model name'); process.exitCode = 2; } else throw e; }

When it happens

Trigger: Passing a partial name that matches several menu entries, e.g. 'gpt' matching 'gpt-4o' and 'gpt-4o-mini', or a common prefix like 'deepseek'.

Common situations: Users typing shorthand model names, or menu containing multiple variants/families of the same model line.
