Root cause

The embeddings model in config.json has a missing or wrong API key, so codebase (@codebase) indexing fails partway.

How to reproduce

Enable @codebase with a remote embeddings provider lacking a valid key; indexing errors out.

#1Applies to 0.8.x

Set a valid `apiKey` for the embeddings provider in config.json, or switch to a local embeddings model (e.g. nomic-embed-text via Ollama) to avoid keys entirely.
