On Intel macbook -- browseros server not connecting #275
Description
Title: “Failed to fetch (127.0.0.1:9201)” when testing any LLM provider on macOS
Body:
Hi, I’m running BrowserOS on macOS (Intel) and I’m unable to use the “Test” button for any custom LLM provider.
Steps to reproduce:
- Open Settings → BrowserOS AI.
- Add a provider (tested with Gemini and OpenRouter).
- Use the following settings:
- Gemini
- Base URL:
https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta - Model:
gemini-2.5-flash
- Base URL:
- OpenRouter
- Base URL:
https://openrouter.ai/api/v1 - Model:
openai/gpt-4o
- Base URL:
- Gemini
- Enter a valid API key and click Test.
Expected behavior:
The provider test succeeds and confirms the connection.
Actual behavior:
The test fails immediately with the error:
Failed to fetch (127.0.0.1:9201)
The same error appears for different providers, so it looks like the internal local server/proxy on 127.0.0.1:9201 is not reachable.
Additional info:
- OS: macOS (Intel)
- Elasticsearch is running successfully on
http://localhost:9200and responds correctly. - Restarting BrowserOS and changing providers does not fix the issue.
Screenshots attached show the provider configuration and the error message.
Could you please check why the internal test uses 127.0.0.1:9201 and how to fix or bypass this on macOS?
