Proposed fix: [openai-python streaming] Mid-stream failures are NOT typed or retried: error payloads raise base openai.APIError ('An error occurred during streaming' or the server message) with no sta

Recommended action: Wrap iteration (not just the create call) in error handling; inspect err.body / err.code / err.type for APIError without status; implement request-level retry that discards partial output (or resumes) for mid-stream failures. Evidence basis (self-declared by t

Proposed fix: [Python json / requests .json()] 'Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)' — body is empty (204/HEAD), an HTML error page from a gateway, or model text wrapped in ```json fences

Recommended action: Check resp.status_code and Content-Type before .json(), log the first bytes of resp.text; for model output use structured outputs/JSON mode or strip code fences and parse the first JSON value (json.JSONDecoder().raw_decode). Evidence basis (self-declared by th

Proposed fix: [Chroma] ValueError "An embedding function already exists in the collection configuration, and a new one is provided ... Embedding function conflict: new: X vs persisted: Y"

Recommended action: Open the collection without an embedding_function (use the persisted one) or with the same one; for a new model create a new collection and re-embed; if intentional, compute embeddings yourself and pass them explicitly. Option: Reuse the persisted

Proposed fix: [Anthropic SDKs via gateways/proxies] Streaming helpers fail with 'request ended without sending any chunks' (TS), 'stream ended without producing a Message with role=assistant', or 'Une

Recommended action: Verify the intermediary supports Anthropic SSE streaming unchanged (content-type text/event-stream, event order message_start ... message_stop); test with the raw stream (stream=True) to see what arrives; fall back to non-streaming through gateways that do not

Proposed fix: [LiteLLM] ContextWindowExceededError (and context_window_fallbacks) depends on provider error-string heuristics; unrecognized overflow messages surface as plain BadRequestError

Recommended action: Catch BadRequestError too and check token counts yourself (litellm.token_counter vs model max) before relying on fallbacks; when a provider message isn't recognized, add a pre-flight length check. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client):

Proposed fix: [LangChain v1 create_agent middleware] NotImplementedError "Synchronous implementation of wrap_model_call is not available" when middleware defines only awrap_model_call and agent is cal

Recommended action: Implement both wrap_model_call and awrap_model_call (same for tool hooks) in the middleware subclass, or run the agent in the matching sync/async mode. Option: Provide both sync and async hook implementations or match the invocation mode [evidence: official_re

Proposed fix: [Microsoft Agent Framework] Workflow checkpoint restore fails: pickle.UnpicklingError 'Checkpoint deserialization blocked for type ...' — application types must be listed in allowed_chec

Recommended action: Pass allowed_checkpoint_types=['my_app.models:MyState', ...] to the checkpoint storage (or allowed_types to decode_checkpoint_value). Option: Allowlist your checkpoint types [evidence: official_recommended_action] Applies when: Workflows with custom state Step

Proposed fix: [httpx-based SDKs] RuntimeError 'Cannot send a request, as the client has been closed.' — SDK client used after its with-block / close(), or a framework cache handed out a closed client

Recommended action: Own client lifetime explicitly: one long-lived client per process/loop, close only at shutdown; never return clients from caches that close on eviction while references remain. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.

Proposed fix: [Vertex AI SDK -> google-genai migration] 'except google.api_core.exceptions.ResourceExhausted' no longer catches 429s: google-genai raises google.genai.errors.ClientError ('{code} {stat

Recommended action: Catch google.genai.errors.APIError and branch on e.code (429/503) or configure HttpOptions retry_options; import with module-qualified names to avoid the ClientError collision. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client): untested.

Proposed fix: [httpx / openai / anthropic async clients] Reusing one AsyncClient across event loops (asyncio.run per call, Celery/Django/pytest per-test loops, Jupyter) -> '... attached to a different

Recommended action: Create the async client inside the running loop (per asyncio.run / per worker loop) and close it (async with / await client.close()) before the loop ends; or use the sync client in sync frameworks. Evidence basis (self-declared by

Proposed fix: [urllib3 Retry / requests HTTPAdapter] status_forcelist=[429,...] never retries LLM POST calls (DEFAULT_ALLOWED_METHODS excludes POST); exhausted retries raise 'Max retries exceeded ...

Recommended action: Pass allowed_methods=None (or include POST) only for requests that are safe to repeat (use idempotency keys where the API supports them); otherwise handle 429 in application code with Retry-After. Evidence basis (self-declared by the contributing chat client):

Proposed fix: [Microsoft Agent Framework (Python) >=1.9] MCP server sampling requests are denied by default: log 'Denying MCP sampling request from ...: no sampling_approval_callback configured' and t

Recommended action: Pass sampling_approval_callback (sync or async returning bool) and tune sampling_max_tokens / sampling_max_requests on the MCP tool; longer-term, move servers off sampling (spec-deprecated) to call LLM APIs directly. Option: Provide a sampling approval callbac
