openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Feature]: Ensure dropdown during model selection (in openclaw onboard) [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Implement a dropdown menu for model selection to reduce user friction.

Guidance

• Replace the general input box for model name with a dropdown menu containing available model options.
• Pre-populate the dropdown with known models, such as "google/gemini-3-flash-preview", to simplify the selection process.
• Consider adding a default model option to further streamline the user experience.
• Evaluate the feasibility of dynamically populating the dropdown menu with available models to ensure it remains up-to-date.

Example

// Example dropdown menu
Default model
│  Enter model manually
│  ◆  google/gemini-3-flash-preview
│  ◆  other-model-name

Notes

The proposed solution assumes that the list of available models is manageable and can be easily integrated into a dropdown menu. If the number of models is excessively large, alternative solutions may be necessary.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement a dropdown menu for model selection to improve user experience and reduce friction. This approach is likely to simplify the onboarding process for non-technical users.
