Downloaded Models Are Missing from the Downloads Section, Causing Duplicate Downloads
#132
When I select and download a model for the first time during the initial app setup, the model appears to download successfully. However, after navigating to the Downloads or model management section, the same model is not displayed as downloaded.
If I tap the model again, the app starts downloading the same model a second time, potentially wasting storage space, bandwidth, and time.
Steps to Reproduce
Install and open AnythingLLM Mobile.
Select a local model during the initial setup.
Wait until the model download completes successfully.
Open the Downloads or model management section.
Check whether the downloaded model is listed.
Select the same model again.
Actual Behavior
The previously downloaded model is not correctly reflected in the download management UI, and selecting it again triggers another download.
Expected Behavior
The app should maintain a consistent model registry and accurately display download status. Existing model files should be detected, and duplicate downloads should be prevented.
Suggested Fix
Synchronize download state with persistent model metadata and on-disk files. Add duplicate-download protection and validate model integrity before starting a new download.

Are you saying you are choosing a preset like "Lightweight" or something and then not seeing it selected when in the model picker? Can you validate the steps for me?
All of the presets have their full name model (with exact tag) in the static model card list - they are simply an alias for this
Thanks for the response. To clarify, this issue occurs with lightweight Qwen2.5 models, particularly the 0.5B and 0.8B variants, when selected through the lightweight preset. The model downloads successfully during initial setup, but it doesn't appear as downloaded in the Downloads section. Selecting it again triggers another download.
Could you please investigate the model download state and preset handling?
