Pi's provider status treated "Pi lists any model" as fully authenticated. If Pi's launch arguments pin a model whose provider has no credentials (for example --model openai/gpt-5 with only an Anthropic key), T3 showed Pi as ready while every turn on "Pi default" failed, with nothing explaining why.
Status now checks Pi's own verdict. Pi's RPC get_available_models lists only models of providers it holds credentials for, including extension providers, virtual models, models.json providers and a runtime --api-key. When Pi lists no model of the active model's provider, the status carries a message naming the model and provider. On Pi 0.84.1+ (without --api-key in the launch arguments), T3 also runs pi auth check --provider <id> --json --no-refresh to say whether credentials are missing. That command neither refreshes nor prints credentials, and it cannot see extensions, so it only refines Pi's own verdict. Older Pi (0.80.5+) gets a generic message pointing at the launch arguments.
Pi stays ready and authenticated in this case. A warning status would hide every Pi model in the picker, although models other than the default still work. Select Pi in provider settings to read the diagnostic in its existing detail view. The compact web provider list keeps its ready summary and does not show this diagnostic inline. The check runs per provider, matching Pi's own turn gate, so an uncatalogued model id of a provider with credentials gets no message. Readiness here is not a proven model call.
Out of scope: a T3 custom model whose provider lacks credentials still fails only when the turn starts (adapter work), and there is no in-app Pi login.
status.test.ts: 12 cases pass. Against main's status.ts, the 4 new message cases fail (missing credentials, a runtime --api-key, an auth check reporting provider_not_found, and Pi older than 0.84.1). The uncatalogued-id and extension-model rows pass on both. The fake process pins the exact auth check arguments, including --no-refresh, and fails the test if the check runs when it should not.--api-key, a saved default that Pi falls back from, an extension provider, extension-supplied OpenAI auth, the virtual model router/auto (on 1.4.0), the local models.json model ollama, and an uncatalogued model id.auth check, and 0.84.1 runs it exactly once.pi returned malformed, empty and schema-invalid JSON, or failed outright. Each case falls back to the generic message and Pi stays ready. A hanging auth check times out after about 4 s, and its process is gone afterwards.vp run check:changed pingdotgg/main passes. Local cubic review: 0 issues.Unproven: no UI capture, since no client code changed. The existing settings detail renders message.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Adds clearer guidance when Pi's default model lacks an available provider, while keeping other models usable. The diagnostic probe is version-gated, time-limited and non-refreshing; model defaults and authentication behavior remain unchanged.

Pi status discovery now retains active model identity when inventory does not include it. For eligible Pi versions, status reporting checks provider credentials unless a runtime API key is supplied, then reports a credential-specific or general unavailable-model message. Readiness and authentication status still depend on discovered models.
Changes: Pi status reporting

Track active models missing from inventory packages/provider-pi/src/server/status.ts | Discovery records the active model’s provider and ID when no discovered model matches that provider. |
Report unavailable active models packages/provider-pi/src/server/status.ts, packages/provider-pi/src/server/status.test.ts | Status reporting selects the no-usable-models message or describes an unavailable active model. For eligible Pi versions, it checks provider authentication and reports missing credentials only when the response identifies credentials_not_configured. Tests cover pinned, uncatalogued, and extension models, plus API-key and version cases. |

Explanation
The title "fix(pi): explain when Pi's default model has no credentials" follows conventional commit format and names the main change. The PR adds a status message when Pi's active model has a provider with no credentials, and the summary confirms this. The title is specific and accurate, so it passes.
Explanation
The description clearly explains the problem, implementation, scope exclusions, and verification. The Scope and approval section does not provide a linked triaged issue or discussion with explicit maintainer approval, nor does it explain why the change qualifies as a small focused fix without prior approval.
Resolution
Add the linked triaged issue or approval discussion, including the maintainer's explicit approval of the direction and scope. If no prior approval is required, explain why this focused fix qualifies for that exception.

Show the Pi detail in the provider list.
For an authenticated ready Pi provider, getProviderSummary sets summary.detail from provider.message, and inlineStatusDetail receives that value. The editor view renders it, but the list view renders it only when needsAttention is true. Ready providers do not meet that condition, so the main web provider list hides the unavailable-model explanation.

Note
🤖 GPT 6.1 Sol responding on behalf of Wout
The list/editor distinction is correct. This PR uses the existing selected-provider detail: getProviderSummary retains the message for authenticated providers, and the provider editor renders inlineStatusDetail even when the provider is ready (editor status rendering). Selecting Pi in Settings exposes the diagnostic while its working models remain available.
Declining the Pi-specific list exception for this PR. Changing how the compact list shows details for partially usable providers is a separate UI policy change; the existing list intentionally includes details only for providers needing attention. I clarified this visibility limit in the PR description. No claim that the compact list displays this diagnostic remains.
@StiensWout Understood. The selected-provider editor exposes the diagnostic while Pi’s working models remain available. The compact list behavior is intentional, so my requested Pi-specific exception was unnecessary for this PR. I withdraw the finding.

| 5 | Learning: In apps/web/src/components/settings/ProviderInstanceCard.tsx, the provider list intentionally displays summary detail only for warning/error states. For Antigravity's unchecked OAuth sign-in state, provider.message is AUTH_UNCHECKED_MESSAGE, which the “Installed · Sign-in required” headline already conveys. Do not require the list to repeat that message when this state uses the ready presentation. |
