Hi everyone, I’m experiencing a frustrating bug with the prototyper. For the last few days, it’s been intermittently failing to apply XML or other file modifications. The console output frequently shows: (Omitted from agent history: changes suggested and applied to the following files: /home/user/s…

Hey folks, regarding the original post about “Omitted from agent history”, we’re working on this along with some other issues affecting workspaces with very large App Prototyping agent chat histories, with fixes planned for the coming weeks.

for real, and I mean this with all due respect, but this is absolutely ridiculous. I would be ashamed to offer such an abysmal experience. it has been absolutely torturous. we’re getting kicked off the VM every 5 mins. like, why are you even letting us in, in the first place? what in the world is go…

Thanks for reporting this prototyper bug with file modifications. We’re on it and actively investigating. Will get back to you!

I kind of fixed the error by deleting every message instead of the first one from /home/user/.idx/ai/capra-context-state.json Here is a more detailed guide: Temporary workaround for error due to exceeding input token count (unofficial) - General - Firebase Studio Community

Hey there, I am new here and I wonder how long does it usually take for such issue to be usually fixed? Thanks again!

Hi there, Google contacted me directly and I send over all my logs and local AI conversation history. In addition to that they mentioned in an other thread (~7 days old) that they are working on a solution. My guess would be an other 1-2 weeks. From my point of view the actual bugs and issues are…

@romannurik Thanks for your active feedback! Regarding the Omitted… I still get the message from time to time after resetting the chat history (threads & context). As soon as my history gets longer the issue intensifies again. BR and keep up the good work!

yes, things starts to go south around 250k tokens combined context. Once I had it at over 2500k tokens, which was unusable at that time, still pretty impressive it managed to get that big and still do some work close to it… now I’m resetting very frequently the entire context (both files), I try not…

I found that simply using the word “liar” with a screenshot of the entire message with the “Omitted” line has worked more times than not.

Happens to me too. I have sometime to tell it to “make the changes” 4 times until it makes the changes in the code. And the commit message then becomes “make the changes”.
