Originally assigned to: @appflowy on GitHub.

Bug Description

The instructions at https://appflowy.com/guide/intro-to-appflowy-ai state that users should "Click 📄 to select your page source(s)" in the AI Chat interface. However, when using AppFlowy-LAI with AppFlowy version 0.8.7 on macOS Sequoia 15.3.2, the 📄 button does not appear. Attempts to reference pages manually using "@", "/", or "[]" also fail to retrieve document-specific context. The AI responses remain generic and do not reference any page content.

How to Reproduce

Install AppFlowy version 0.8.7 on macOS Sequoia 15.3.2.
Set up AppFlowy-LAI following instructions at https://appflowy.com/guide/appflowy-local-ai-ollama.
Open AppFlowy and navigate to AI Settings.
Enable "AppFlowy Local AI (LAI)" and set Ollama server URL to http://localhost:11434.
Open an AI Chat page and attempt to reference a page source:
- Look for the 📄 button (it does not appear).
- Use "@", "/", or "[]" syntax to reference pages (none work).
Type a prompt that expects document-specific context (e.g., "What was my weight at my weight loss doctor visit on 9/20/24?").

Expected Behavior

The 📄 button should appear in the AI Chat interface, allowing users to select page sources as described in the documentation. Alternatively, manual referencing methods like "@", "/", or "[]" should retrieve document-specific context from selected pages.

Operating System

macOS Sequoia 15.3.2 (M4-based Mac mini with 16 GB RAM)

AppFlowy Version(s)

AppFlowy version 0.8.7

Screenshots

Additional Context

Ollama server is running properly and returning valid JSON responses.
Models llama3.1 and nomic-embed-text are correctly configured in AppFlowy's AI Settings.
The issue persists even after reinitializing the plugin, restarting both Ollama and AppFlowy, and attempting debug mode for af_ollama_plugin.
The problem may be related to UI inconsistencies or incomplete integration between AppFlowy-LAI and Ollama.

@bobdowns You can try the latest verson of local AI. We don't need to download the plugin anymore.
