Root CauseThe implementation uses RecommendationThe codebase has a ModelPicker component in the settings, but it's not exposed in the chat interface with a testid that can be triggered. You may need to either:

The /models command incorrectly triggers the mode selector instead of a model selector. The issue requirement states /models should "open the model picker scoped to the active profile" to allow users to swap AI models (like GPT-4, Claude, etc.). However, this implementation opens the ModeSelector component, which is for selecting operational modes (Code/Ask/Debug/etc.), not AI models. The [data-testid="mode-selector-trigger"] selector points to the ModeSelector component (see ModeSelector.tsx line 199), which serves a completely different purpose than selecting AI models.

Same issue here - the /models command triggers the mode selector instead of a model selector. This duplicate occurrence needs the same fix as line 337.
