traceback closing and opening a model with Boltz tool present

[Elaine Meng]

The following bug report has been submitted:
Platform:        macOS-15.4.1-arm64-arm-64bit
ChimeraX Version: 1.11.dev202505100155 (2025-05-10 01:55:16 UTC)
Description
I had a model open, then showed the Bolz tool.  Then I decided I didn't want that model so I closed it and opened a new structure. I didn't try to use the "Add" button so I don't know exactly which step led to the traceback
