[Google Gen AI SDK local tokenizer (Go/Java)] 'downloaded model hash mismatch' / 'Downloaded model file is corrupted. Expected hash ...' — tokenizer model fetched at runtime from raw.githubuserconten…

Cause (Documented platform behavior): The model file is not bundled; the SDK verifies a pinned SHA-256 and refuses mismatched content. Fix status: documented_behavior Misleading approaches: - Deleting the cache repeatedly — the proxy response is re-downloaded and fails the hash again. Other error fragments: - Downloaded model file is corrupted. Expected hash - Failed to download tokenizer model: HTTP Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/googleapis/go-genai/b70164ad5fd73a8f66e04a5059683176096cec50/tokenizer/tokenizer.go (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): loadModelData caches at $TEMP_DIR/vertexai_tokenizer_model/$urlhash, downloads from pinned raw.githubusercontent.com gemma_pytorch URLs, and returns 'downloaded model hash mismatch' if the data doesn't match the expected hash. - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/googleapis/java-genai/be6b211e0182c342822e56ea12dc4bc311ccf676/src/main/java/com/google/genai/LocalTokenizerLoader.java (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): Downloads the same model URLs into java.io.tmpdir/vertexai_tokenizer_model; throws 'Failed to download tokenizer model: HTTP <code>' or 'Downloaded model file is corrupted.
