I forgot to mention it in the other issue, but here's something you want to correct in your input: "temperatur":0.6, => "temperature":0.6 Just something I noticed before, as well.

I can't really help with this issue, though. I'm not up-to-date on the internals when it comes to to context size.

@cosmic-snow , thanks for information about missing "e" in {temperatur**e**: 0.6,}

Version 2.7.4 this bug is still there

In version 2.7.5, there appears to have been some modifications made. Now, when you use this program, you can observe how it populates your window with a large amount of context text. However, after displaying the message "... cannot be processed", unfortunately, the application unexpectedly shuts down (the Win10 App closed).

The issue still seems to be live. Crashing the tool when exceeding max input length on macOS.

The issue still seems to be live. Crashing the tool when exceeding max input length on macOS.

V3.0.0 on Win10 does not crash the example above get in firefox network console the following response { "0": { "finish_reason": "stop", "index": 0, "logprobs": null, "references": [], "text": "ERROR: The prompt size exceeds the context window size and cannot be processed." } }

@astrategist you may be running into a different issue. Are you using the local server, too?
