Description

For many reasons this extensions triggers popups in vscode and it does not respect our notifications preference so they keep appearing without consent.

This is especially distracting for notifications such as this:

Warning: qwen2.5-coder:1.5b-instruct-q8_0 is not trained for tab-autocomplete, and will result in low-quality suggestions. See the docs to learn more about why: https://docs.continue.dev/features/tab-autocomplete#i-want-better-completions-should-i-use-gpt-4

it's okay to show this warning once but not every single time, specially since this is a false positive, the model works fine.

To reproduce

1. check "turn off all notifications from Continue..."
2. still get notifications from continue

Hi @evertjr , thanks for the heads up here. Could you share where you have configured notifications to be disabled? I'm not seeing much in the VS Code docs around how to check this setting so that we can then respect it.

[evertjr]

e believe it's from the native Notification Center, this notification shows up even if I enable do not disturb.

Hi @evertjr,

agree it should not be throwing an error; we should change this to a warning message, since error messages will be shown regardless of the info/warning settings to make sure real errors aren't silent. Any other specific errors notifications that have been showing incessantly?

Notifications playground, where you can see how error messages and thrown errors show regardless of settings: clone and debug this repo: Sample notifications extension

note to self, error messages are shown by:

• uncaught error in core, ide, or gui
• ide.showToast("error" | "warning" | "info", ...) from core/gui

Quick scan through the ~200 Error throws and show, all look like valid error events except this one and one other. Will open PR

btw, the error being triggered is in itself is a problem.

Qwen 2.5 has been trained for FIM. It would be nice to remove this warning altogether.

[Patrick-Erichsen]

@AnnoyingTechnology yes, but that is the fine-tuned instruct model which is not trained for FIM.
