-# How to Scan for AI Models
-# TODO REWRITE
-
-This guide explains how to use the **Scan** feature to discover and add AI models to your app.
-
-## How Scanning Works
-
-The scan feature searches for available AI models on your device or network.
-
-> **Note:** Results depend on your API key permissions.
-
-### Key Points
-
-- Only public models are shown by default
-- Private models require additional setup
-- Try again if no models are found
-
-## Why Some Models Are Missing
-
-Some models may not appear in the scan results due to:
-
-| Reason | Description | Icon |
-|--------|-------------|------|
-| Restricted access | Model requires special permissions | 🔒 |
-| Not suitable | Model type not supported | ⚠️ |
-| Text only | Only text-based models are supported | ✓ |
-
-### Model Tiers
-
-We recommend these tiers for optimal performance:
-
-- **Nano** - Fastest, for simple tasks
-- **Mini** - Balanced speed and capability
-- **Small** - Good for most tasks
-- **Medium** - More capable, slower
-- **Large** - Most capable, paid only
-
-## Tips for Success
-
-1. **Verify your API key** is active and has correct permissions
-2. **Select the correct organization** from your account
-3. **Type model names manually** if scanning doesn't find them
-4. **Prefer instruct or chat models** for text generation
-
-```kotlin
-// Example: Manual model addition
-val model = Model(
-    name = "llama3.2",
-    type = ModelType.TEXT,
-    provider = "ollama"
-)
-```
-
-## Visual Guide
-
-### Step 1: Initiate Scan
-
-Click the scan button to search for available models.
-
-### Step 2: Select Model Type
-
-Choose between different model categories:
-
-- **Text Chat** - For conversational AI
-- **Instruct** - For direct instructions
-- **Complete** - For text completion
-
-### Step 3: Add & Validate
-
-Add the selected model and validate it works correctly.
-
----
-
-## Can't Find Your Model?
-
-If your model doesn't appear in the scan results:
-
-1. Check if the model is running locally or accessible via API
-2. Verify network connectivity
-3. Try adding it manually by entering the model details
-
-> **Pro Tip:** You can always add models manually by clicking the "+" button in the models screen.
-

-# How to Connect to an AI Model
-
-This guide explains how to connect your app to an AI model using an API key.
-
-## Getting Started
-
-To use AI models in your app, you need to provide a valid API key.
-
-> **Note:** Keep your API key secure and never share it publicly.
-
-## Key Status Indicators
-
-| Status | Icon | Meaning |
-|--------|------|---------|
-| Active | ✅ | Key is valid and working |
-| Missing | ⚠️ | Key is not set |
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-1. Verify the key is correct
-2. Ensure proper permissions
-3. Check your quota

-This is a **markdown-based** hint that provides _beautiful_ and consistent styling.
-
-## Features
-
-- **Rich text formatting** - bold, italic, strikethrough
-- **Headings** - H1 through H6 levels
-- **Lists** - ordered and unordered
-- **Code blocks** - with syntax highlighting
-- **Tables** - for structured data
-- **Links** - styled clickable references
-- **Blockquotes** - for highlighted content
-
-## How to Use
-
-1. Create a `.md` file in `assets/hints/`
-2. Load it using `context.assets.open("hints/your_hint.md")`
-3. Pass the content to `MarkdownHint()`
-
-> **Tip:** You can also embed UI elements by combining markdown with HintElements!
-
-## Code Example
-
-```kotlin
-val markdown = loadMarkdownFromAssets("hints/scan_hint.md")
-MarkdownHint(
-    markdownContent = markdown,
-    title = "Scan Hint"
-)
-```
-
-## Table Example
-
-| Feature | Status | Priority |
-|---------|--------|----------|
-| Headings | ✅ | High |
-| Lists | ✅ | High |
-| Tables | ✅ | Medium |
