flemming-it 5b6641567c feat(studio): system-ai editor — test-without-save + model picker (v0.13.0)
Three operator-facing improvements driven by Stefan's testing:

  * **Test Connection** runs against the form's *current* values
    and no longer requires saving first. Previously we save-then-
    test which caused a "system AI is disabled" message when the
    form's model field was still empty. Now the test prompt
    travels with the request body so unsaved tweaks can be
    validated.

  * **Model picker** replaces the free-text Model field. A
    Refresh button calls HubAdmin.ListSystemAiModels (provider's
    `/v1/models`); installed models show up as clickable chips
    that fill the field with one tap. The text input stays for
    cases where the operator already knows the id.

  * **Pull** button (Ollama only) downloads a model via
    `/api/pull`. Type `gemma3:4b`, click Pull, spinner, then the
    new model lights up in the chip list. No more "switch to a
    terminal to ollama-pull" detour.

Helper text updates for the empty-model case ("Required: pick
from the list (Refresh) or type one. Use Pull to download from
Ollama.") so a fresh operator never wonders why Save / Test
errors out.

F∆I Studio

Desktop GUI client for the F∆I Platform hub. Tier-2 generic platform client per docs/architecture/client.md. Connects to a local or remote fai serve over gRPC.

Status (2026-05-05): MVP scaffold. Three pages with mock data, no live gRPC connection yet. Validates the visual direction before the Dart SDK is wired in.

Pages (MVP scope)

  1. Modules — installed modules, capabilities, declared permissions. Click → manifest detail.
  2. Audit — live stream of hub events (when wired). Filter by event type and flow.
  3. Approvals — pending system.approval@^0 reviews with approve / reject buttons.

These three cover the platform's central properties: composition (modules), audit (events), human-in-the-loop (approvals).

Stack

  • Flutter 3.40+ (Desktop: macOS, Linux, Windows)
  • gRPC client via fai_dart_sdk (sibling repo; pinned by relative path during development)
  • No external runtime dependencies; bundles its own Dart VM

Run locally

flutter run -d macos

Repo placement

Will be published as fai/studio on Forgejo (git.flemming.ws). The local directory fai_studio/ follows the established fai_platform/ layout convention.

Why "Studio" and not "Stage"

"Stage" collided too easily with "staging environment" in developer English. "Studio" is the established industry pattern for creator-tools (Visual Studio, Android Studio, RStudio) and matches the GUI's audience of module developers, operators, and power users. The rename was applied across all docs/ in the platform repo on 2026-05-05.
