The read-only card is gone. The welcome screen has one button, "Run a local
model" ("Local model" once one is installed), and App Settings > Models has
one row; both open the same window.
The window follows `install.state`: choose a model (a radio group, with a
memory bar filled to what the selected model needs), confirm the sizes and
the folder, watch the download and the steps, and end on "Start a session".
Paused, failed, installed (running or stopped), Remove and "no model fits"
are screens of the same window. It polls the GET once a second while open.
Every dynamic string goes in through textContent, labels and sentences come
from the payload, no CLI id is compared, and every new string has a zh-CN
entry.

Review fixes for the read-only recommendation and its card.
Recommendation (pure):
- `limited` is now a statement about the Mac: no model with 12 billion
parameters or more fits. It is judged on everything that fits, before
the disk filter and whatever the pick is. A 32 or 36 GB Mac whose pick
is a 9B model no longer reads "This Mac can run a small model" above a
list of 20B, 27B and 35B models, and knowing the chip no longer lowers
the verdict. A small pick under `ok` carries a note that says so.
- A model that fits the memory but has no room on the disk is no longer
dropped in silence: the best-ranked one is named in a note with the GB
that are missing. A full disk cannot turn a 48 GB Mac into a
small-model Mac.
- "Models fit, but not at a context a harness needs" has its own
sentence with the budget and the need, worded as an estimate. The
16 GB Mac mini misses by 1.3 points (10.3 of 10.4 GB) and was told
flatly that its memory is too little, the sentence of an 8 GB Mac.
- The installed memory is named by the size the Mac is sold as (48, not
51.5): the hardware line and the memory sentence. Every computed size
stays decimal GB from the one formatter. An unknown memory size is no
longer reported as "0.0 GB".
- Slow is graded on the unrounded speed: 9.95 to 9.9996 tokens per
second printed as 10 and read ok.
- The disk sentence names the 10 GiB that must stay free, so its
numbers add up for the reader.
Card and Settings group:
- The Settings group "Model on this Mac" is hidden on a server that is
not a Mac, and until the first answer says it is one.
- Only `403 FORBIDDEN` is a refusal. `403 PASSWORD_CHANGE_REQUIRED`
(an admin who must change the password) is a failed request and is
asked again, so that admin no longer loses the card until a reload.
- Each fit and speed label carries what it measures as its tooltip and
accessible name, an alternative with a speed estimate prints it, and
the count beside "Other models that fit" is gone (it was the number
of rows, capped at four, not the number of models that fit).
- The line saying nothing can be set up yet sits right under the pick,
in the colour of every other line (it was 3.9:1), and says whose step
it is.
- The dismissal key is named for this stage, so hiding the read-only
card does not hide the install offer later.

The read-only face of GET /api/local-model: what the Mac the server runs on
can run as a local coding model.
- local-model-ui.js: one builder paints both containers from the same
payload: the hardware line, the server's headline, the pick with its numbers
(context, download, memory need against the budget, speed), the server's
notes, the other models that fit with their Good, Tight, Slow or Speed
unknown labels, and one line saying that setting it up from Codeman is the
next step and is not built yet.
- The welcome card ships hidden and shows only once the server answered for a
Mac. It stays hidden for not-macos, for a refused request (a non-admin in
multi-user mode) and after "Hide", a per-device localStorage key. The App
Settings group "Model on this Mac" (Models) carries the loading and failure
sentences and is the way back after a Hide.
- Every dynamic string goes in through textContent, both containers are
data-i18n-skip and the module translates its own sentences, repainting on a
language change. Sizes are printed as sent. Labels and harness names come
from the payload: the module names no CLI and the word "Recommended" is not
in it.
- One request a minute at most, shared while in flight; a failed refresh keeps
the last answer on screen.
- i18n.js: zh-CN entries for the module's strings and for every server label.
- frontend-cli-no-id-branching.test.ts scans the new module.
Tests: test/local-model-ui.test.ts (JSDOM over the real markup),
test/local-model-i18n.test.ts.
