escolha a pasta de destino

Error message

escolha a pasta de destino

What it means

After validating the profile, `run` checks that `opts.dest` names a destination folder; if it is empty or whitespace the tool refuses to proceed with this message. The destination is required because downloaded favorite videos are written to that directory (created immediately afterwards with create_dir_all).

Solutions

1. Set opts.dest to a valid directory path before calling run.
2. In the UI, require a folder selection before enabling the action.
3. If dest is omitted, prompt the user or fall back to a sensible default directory upstream.

Example fix

// before
let opts = Options { user: "@someuser".into(), dest: "".into(), ..Default::default() };
// after
let opts = Options { user: "@someuser".into(), dest: "/tmp/favorites".into(), ..Default::default() };

if opts.dest.trim().is_empty() {
    return Err(anyhow!("escolha a pasta de destino antes de iniciar"));
}

fn has_dest(opts: &Options) -> bool { !opts.dest.trim().is_empty() }

When it happens

Trigger: Calling `run(opts, progress)` with `opts.dest` equal to "" or whitespace; forgetting to bind the folder-picker result to Options; deserializing Options from a request where the dest key was omitted and defaulted to an empty string.

Common situations: A Tauri frontend sends the command without the user having chosen an output folder; config file has an empty `dest` key; a refactor renamed the field and the call site stopped populating it.
