Two related dropdown bugs in one PR — same root shape (model-picker endpoints disagreeing about which Nous Portal models exist) plus the preemptive UX guard against the picker becoming unusable on large-tier Nous accounts. #1567 — Endpoint disagreement ============================= Reporter (Deor, Discord, May 03 2026) saw Settings → Providers card showing "Nous Portal — 396 models · OAuth" while the in-conversation picker dropdown listed only the four hardcoded curated entries. Two structural causes: 1. ``api/providers.py:get_providers`` iterates ALL OAuth providers regardless of authentication state and unconditionally live-fetches the catalog. 2. ``api/config.py:_build_available_models_uncached`` only iterates providers in ``detected_providers``, gated on ``hermes_cli.models.list_available_providers().authenticated``. That flag can disagree with ``get_auth_status(<id>).logged_in`` on some hermes_cli versions. When the disagreement happens for Nous, the picker silently falls through to the curated 4-entry static list while the providers card keeps showing the live catalog — exactly the asymmetry users report. Plus: the Nous live-fetch branch in `_build_available_models_uncached` fell back to the same curated 4-entry list when `provider_model_ids` returned an empty list (transient failure / OAuth refresh in flight), which doubles down on the disagreement instead of healing it. UX cap (the design concern Nathan flagged on triage) ==================================================== Even with the disagreement fixed, dumping a 397-model catalog into a flat dropdown is unusable. We trim the visible picker to a curated ~15-entry featured set when the catalog exceeds 25 models, and surface the rest under a new ``extra_models`` field so: - ``/model`` slash autocomplete (commands.js) covers the full catalog - ``_dynamicModelLabels`` (ui.js) hydrates from both lists, so a model selected from outside the featured slice still gets a proper label - The optgroup label gets ``" (15 of 397)"`` appended so the user understands the dropdown is intentionally trimmed, not broken - The providers card surfaces ``models_total`` separately so the header still reads "397 models · OAuth" - A small "+N more" disclosure pill appears at the end of the rendered pill list (only fires for non-OAuth providers — OAuth cards never render pills) with a tooltip pointing at the slash command Featured selection rules ------------------------ Deterministic; same algorithm runs in both `/api/models` and `/api/models/live` so background enrichment doesn't undo the trim: 1. Always include the user's currently-selected model (sticky — no orphan IDs in the dropdown after a refresh) 2. Always include every entry from the curated static ``_PROVIDER_MODELS["nous"]`` list whose id maps onto a live id 3. Top up to 15 by walking ``_NOUS_VENDOR_PRIORITY`` round-robin (one model per vendor each pass) so no vendor monopolises the slots Changes by file =============== api/config.py - New `_format_nous_label` neighbour: `_NOUS_FEATURED_THRESHOLD = 25`, `_NOUS_FEATURED_TARGET = 15`, `_NOUS_VENDOR_PRIORITY` tuple, `_build_nous_featured_set()` helper (~80 LOC) - `_build_available_models_uncached` Nous branch: - Apply featured-set cap with sticky-selection signal - Return `extra_models` alongside `models` for the catalog tail - Decorate optgroup label with truncation count - Drop stale-4 fallback when authenticated but live-fetch empty (omit the group entirely; truth lives in the providers card and the next cache rebuild will heal it) - Keep stale-4 fallback when hermes_cli is unavailable (test envs, package mismatches) — that's a different failure mode - Detection symmetry: explicit `get_auth_status("nous").logged_in` check after the existing `list_available_providers()` loop, so the picker matches the providers card on hermes_cli versions where the two signals disagree api/providers.py:get_providers - Apply same featured-set cap so card body doesn't render 397 pills - Add `models_total` field reporting full catalog size (used by frontend for the "N models · OAuth" header text) api/routes.py:_handle_live_models - Apply same featured-set cap for `/api/models/live` so background enrichment via `_fetchLiveModels()` doesn't undo the dropdown trim - Use sticky-selection from `cfg["model"]["model"]` matching the main endpoint's logic static/ui.js:populateModelDropdown - Hydrate `_dynamicModelLabels` from `g.extra_models` so a selection outside the visible dropdown still renders with its proper label static/commands.js:_loadSlashModelSubArgs - Iterate `group.extra_models` so `/model` autocomplete covers the full catalog (not just the trimmed featured slice) static/panels.js:_buildProviderCard - Header count uses `p.models_total` (full catalog size) instead of `p.models.length` (trimmed slice) - Render trailing "+N more" disclosure pill when `models.length < models_total` with a tooltip pointing at the slash command static/style.css - New `.provider-card-model-tag-more` rule (italic, dashed border, cursor:help, no select) — visually distinct from real model pills Tests ===== `tests/test_issue1567_nous_picker_capacity_and_symmetry.py` (20 tests): - TestBuildNousFeaturedSet (8): unit tests on the helper — small-catalog no-op, large-catalog cap to target, disjoint+complete invariants, priority-vendor round-robin guarantee, sticky selection with and without `@nous:` prefix, curated-flagship preservation, empty-catalog handling, determinism - TestApiModelsLargeCatalog (2): /api/models cap behavior end-to-end on a synthetic 397-model catalog vs a 20-model catalog - TestNousDetectionSymmetry (2): picker includes Nous when `get_auth_status` agrees but `list_available_providers` disagrees; picker omits Nous when both disagree - TestNousLiveFetchEmpty (2): authenticated + empty-fetch omits group; hermes_cli unavailable still falls back to static-4 - TestProvidersCardPickerSymmetry (1): both endpoints agree on exactly the same featured-set IDs + total catalog count - TestFrontendExtrasContract (4): static-source assertions pinning the JS contract for `extra_models`, `models_total`, and the "+N more" disclosure Verified live on port 8789 (30-model catalog): - /api/models Nous group: provider="Nous Portal (15 of 30)", 15 models, 15 extra_models - /api/models/live?provider=nous: 15 entries (matches main path) - /api/providers Nous card: models_total=30, models=15 - Browser dropdown after backfill: 15 options, 30 entries in _dynamicModelLabels - Sticky selection: Claude Opus 4.7 (the active model) in the featured slice as expected 4073 pytest passed (was 4053 → 4073, +20 from this PR). 3 CI test runs (3.11/3.12/3.13) green.
