There is currently no way to uninstall a model when using the proposed UI (chat). A right-click option to delete models should be available. For a beginner, it's unclear how to remove a model. Installing 15 models just to try them out would quickly lead to an overwhelming experience. Furthermore, models evolve; how does one delete older versions? Additionally, there should be a way to mark or identify already installed models. At present, the only way to determine if a model is installed is by attempting to use it.

Maybe Adding a ⓘ in the dropdown line and a Ⓤ to click to uninstall.
Or right Click on the dropdown line.
