[BUG] Generator doesn't work well if you've namespaced your models

[jpowell]

Basic checks

• I searched existing issues - this hasn't been reported
• I can reproduce this consistently
• This is a RubyLLM bug, not my application code

What's broken?

In our application, chat and message are a thing, so we wanted to namespace the models for AI / LLM activities, and there's really no support for this in the gem currently.

How to reproduce

run the chat_ui generator with any model names that may have a nested prefix (ie, LLM::Chat) and you'll get syntax errors

Expected behavior

support namespacing of llm gem models in generator

What actually happened

syntax errors

Environment

ruby 3.4.5 (2025-07-16 revision 20cda200d3) +PRISM [aarch64-linux]
ruby_llm 1.8.0

I would also like to be able to specify a namespace for the UI... say in my admin interface as i dont' allow end users to just talk with AI, that is more of a tool call and use behind the scenes feature. the chat is for super admin testing response and tool usage

Overall, thank you for your work on this!

Thank you for reporting this. I have made a substantial refactoring to make it fully work with namespaced models and controllers. I also included tests that are quite thorough.

However, I'm afraid mismatched namespaces will not be supported by the generators. It's quite an advanced feature and the generators are meant to get started quickly, not to support every use case under the sun.
