Error message
streaming models upstream missing models[]
What it means
Thrown by the official streaming speech provider's `listModels()` when `/api/v1/audio/models/streaming` returned 200 but `data.models` is not an array. The declared type marks `models` as required (unlike the HTTP provider where it is optional), so any 200 body without `models[]` violates the contract and aborts model discovery.
Solutions
- Inspect the raw response body via curl to see the actual shape returned.
- Deploy matching server/client revisions — the client expects `{ available, models: [{id,name,description}], default }`.
- If the server intentionally reports no models, have it return an empty `models: []` array rather than omitting the field.
- Treat this failure as 'streaming unavailable' in callers so the UI degrades gracefully.
Example fix
// before
if (!Array.isArray(data.models))
throw new Error('streaming models upstream missing models[]')
// after — honor the availability flag and tolerate a missing catalog
if (!Array.isArray(data.models)) {
streamingTtsAvailable.value = false
return []
} Defensive patterns
Strategy: type-guard
Validate before calling
const data: unknown = await res.json() if (!isStreamingModelsPayload(data)) streamingTtsAvailable.value = false
Type guard
function isStreamingModelsPayload(data: unknown): data is { available?: boolean, models: Array<{ id: string, name?: string, description?: string }>, default?: string | null } {
if (typeof data !== 'object' || data === null)
return false
return Array.isArray((data as { models?: unknown }).models)
} Try / catch
const models = isStreamingModelsPayload(data) ? data.models.map(toModelInfo) : []
Prevention
- Server should always include `models` (empty array when none) — make that an API invariant.
- Contract-test the streaming models payload shape on the server.
- Tolerate a missing catalog while honoring the `available` flag.
- Deploy server and client revisions together.
When it happens
Trigger: Server answers 200 with `{ available: false }` and no `models` key; an older server shape (e.g. plain array or different key) after version skew; a proxy rewriting error pages to 200.
Common situations: Client newer than server during staged rollout; `STREAMING_TTS_UPSTREAM` half-configured so the gateway reports availability metadata without a model catalog; API edge returning 200 JSON errors.
Understand the failure class
Background: Schema validation failed / invalid input schema: payload rejected because its shape doesn't match the expected schema — this error's family across 28 libraries.
