No configured model verified for target model_provider

Error message

No configured model verified for target model_provider

What it means

In verify (--check) mode, run_configured_models tests each configured model and counts ok/warning/error outcomes. When a provider override was supplied and ok == 0, no model under that provider verified successfully, so the command exits with this error; per-model error details are printed in the table above it.

Solutions

1. Check the provider api_key and endpoint first — a single bad credential fails every model at once
2. Fix or remove stale model ids under the provider
3. Re-run --check and confirm at least one model verifies

// cheap pre-flight: credentials present for every model under the provider
if let Some(alias) = provider_override {
    if let Some(entry) = config.providers.models.get(alias) {
        if entry.api_key.as_deref().map(str::trim).unwrap_or("").is_empty() {
            anyhow::bail!("provider '{alias}' has no api_key — verification will fail for all its models");
        }
    }
}

match zeroclaw_runtime::doctor::run_configured_models(&config, Some(&alias), true).await {
    Err(err) if err.to_string().contains("No configured model verified") => {
        eprintln!("zero models under '{alias}' verified — check api_key, endpoint, and model ids (details above)");
    }
    other => other?,
}

When it happens

Trigger: Configured-models verification with both --check and a provider filter where every model under that provider fails verification (bad key, unreachable endpoint, wrong model id).

Common situations: A wrong api_key fails all models of a provider at once; the model id in config was retired by the provider; regional network blocks to the provider endpoint.
