Troubleshooting WhoseDev AI
I cannot use a managed model
Section titled “I cannot use a managed model”Confirm that you are signed in, have an open workspace, and have an available model in AI Settings. Managed model availability can depend on your plan, quota, and workspace policy.
If the model catalog does not load, retry after checking your connection. You can also use a direct-provider or local model if one is configured.
Ollama is unavailable
Section titled “Ollama is unavailable”Open AI Settings or run WhoseDev: Manage Offline Models.
- Confirm that Ollama is installed and running.
- Confirm that the selected model has been installed locally.
- Check the configured Ollama base URL if you use a non-default local runtime.
- Retry the request after the runtime reports that it is ready.
Inline suggestions do not appear
Section titled “Inline suggestions do not appear”Check that WhoseDev: Inline Completions Enabled is enabled in Settings. Then confirm that the selected route is available:
- For local routing, start Ollama and install the configured local model.
- For cloud routing, sign in and confirm model availability.
- For automatic routing, review whether cloud fallback is allowed when local Ollama is unavailable.
An inline edit is slow or fails
Section titled “An inline edit is slow or fails”Try a smaller selection or a more specific prompt. Local models can be slower on CPU-only machines; WhoseDev may skip a slow local model for inline editing unless you enable the setting that allows it.
If the task needs more context than one selection, use Send to Chat and continue in the chat panel.
Get more help
Section titled “Get more help”Use Help > Report Issue or open the public WhoseDev issue tracker to report a problem. Include the editor version, operating system, route in use, and the steps that reproduce the problem. Never include secrets or sensitive source code in an issue.
