Issue with Chat in VS Code

[fpolli]

Hi,
When I go to the chat tab in VS Code, this is what it says:

Please update to the latest release of the Tabby server.

You also need to launch the server with the chat model enabled; for example, use --chat-model Qwen2-1.5B-Instruct.

This is my command line (MacBook Pro M3Pro, installed with Homebrew):
tabby serve --device metal --model TabbyML/StarCoder-3B --chat-model CodeQwen-7B-Chat
This is the splash screen when it starts up:

📄 Version 0.15.0
🚀 Listening at 0.0.0.0:8080

The code completion part works in VS Code.

According to the Code page here, 0.15.0 is the latest release.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Hi!
To troubleshoot this issue, I recommend fetching the server health information from /v1/health at http://localhost:8080/api (make sure to set the token first) and comparing it with the checks listed here.
Also, if you built the Tabby VSCode extension from source, please note that the code on the main branch requires work with Tabby server version 0.16.0.

Likewise, the chat does not work in VScode (empty tab)

worked after restarting a few times VScode.
Weird ..
