Cause (Documented platform behavior): Weave links calls to the active wandb run and requires both to target the same entity/project.
Fix status: documented_behavior
Other error fragments:
- To fix, please use the same project for both library initializations.

solution · Revision 1
Proposed fix: [W&B Weave] "Project Mismatch: weave and wandb must be initialized using the same project."
Recommended action: Use the same "entity/project" for wandb.init and weave.init (or finish the wandb run before initializing Weave elsewhere).
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
