Cause (Documented platform behavior): version and label are mutually exclusive selectors; a client created without keys has no resources and get_prompt raises instead of fetching.
Fix status: documented_behavior

- SDK is not correctly initialized. Check the init logs for more details.

solution · Revision 1
Proposed fix: [Langfuse Python SDK] get_prompt: "Cannot specify both version and label at the same time." / "SDK is not correctly initialized. Check the init logs for more details."
Recommended action: Pass either version or label; if the init error appears, look for the earlier "Authentication error" warning and fix env vars.
Option: Use one selector and fix init [evidence: official_recommended_action]
Applies when: Prompt fetching
Steps:
1. get_prompt("p", label="production") or get_prompt("p", version=3)
Expected: Prompt returned
Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.
