I got that once it went away pretty quickly-
I can’t remember if I relogged, or maybe just sent another prompt…
I may have switched to another thread and did a really tiny prompt and then came back too…
Anyways, that error isn’t a real blocker to be able to work I don’t think.
It’s a scary message to have pop up tho!
