@Jeffrey_Lewis - are you in prototyping mode? Or are you using our sidebar chat from our coding workspace? (Flagging this for @ali and @ksat to be aware of!) ---

Hi @Adrestaia - do you see any errors when you go the Output tab group and filter on “Extension Host”? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/idxcommunity/original/2X/4/46899490d52a311de15cacf91dbe9bae61244c8b.png) ---

I get the same error. Nothing in the Output tab with that filter. Just 2 informational messages. The error appears in MS Edge on one of my machines. On another machine both Chrome and Edge just show a blank screen where Gemini should be. Looking at the browser log I see a bunch of 408 errors and messages about the extension host being unresponsive. ![Screenshot 2025-05-21 204335](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/idxcommunity/original/2X/2/27e44a3b204d471298febb88f94221c74fe9b7e3.png) ---

Ok - I flagged this to our team to look deeper into. ---

Unfortunately, I did not check that last night - I made a new workspace from the repo to work with and that seems to work fine. if i run into the issue again, I’ll be sure to check that. Also, the android preview was not shown either when Gemini was unavailable. ---

We suspect this happens when the VM gets extremely busy. The AI extension fails to load. That this eventuality worked on a new VM seems to indicate that may be the case. We will still figure out a fix for this shortly though. ---

As additional context for my issue. I can use Gemini in the Prototyper view ( I expect this is the built in Gemini model) when I switch to Code view I can no longer access Gemini. In the Code view I had previously selected to use Gemini 2.5 Pro. I have tried refreshing the workspace but it makes no difference. Is there a way to change the Gemini model to be used somewhere to see if its an issue purely with selecting Gemini 2.5 Pro? ---

Confirming that creating a new Workspace and importing from my Repo has reactivated Gemini (Built in Model) and can change it back to 2.5 Pro.
