Fast fix: Select model / input box disabled

The DSH input box stays disabled until three things are ready: an API credential, a selected workspace and a selected model. Starting DSH from a folder does not automatically select that folder in the Web UI.

What Select model / input box disabled means

The Web UI has loaded, but the current session is missing one or more required selections, so it cannot send a task yet.

Common causes of Select model / input box disabled

No provider credential has been saved.
No workspace has been selected in the Web UI.
No model is selected, or the saved default model was removed.
The running DSH profile has different provider settings from the profile you edited.

Model selection behaviorThe official provider guide states that when a saved default points to a deleted provider, the composer shows Select model and blocks input until another model is selected.

Fix Select model / input box disabled

01
Save the provider credential
Open Settings → Models and configure the provider you plan to use.
02
Choose a workspace
Click Choose workspace in the Web UI and select a small test folder. The terminal's current directory is not selected automatically.
03
Select a model
Choose a specific model under the provider you just configured.
04
Create a new session if needed
If the input box still refers to deleted defaults, create a new session after completing the three items.

Verify Select model / input box disabled is fixed

A workspace path is visible in the Web UI.
A specific provider and model are selected.
The input box accepts and sends a small test task.

What to avoid

Do not grant a sensitive production folder for the first test.
Do not assume the folder used to launch DSH is already the selected workspace.
