Thank you for the report, @dsoasti. This is not a bug in Open CoDesign itself — the error you're seeing is a HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) from OpenRouter for the free-tier model
meta-llama/llama-3.3-70b-instruct:free.OpenRouter's free models have rate limits per IP/key. The error message suggests either waiting a bit and retrying, or adding your own API key to avoid free-tier throttling.
What you can do:
If you need help finding the provider configuration, the quickstart docs cover provider setup. The app stores config locally in
~/.config/open-codesign/config.toml.Let us know if you keep seeing this after adding a key, or if you run into a different error.

Thanks for the follow-up suggestion, @tyler-ross681. You're right that a built-in retry and fallback mechanism would be a helpful improvement for handling rate-limited providers like OpenRouter's free tier.
Currently, Open CoDesign does not implement automatic retry or provider failover on HTTP 429 errors. The error is passed through directly from the
pi-ailayer to the user, and the generation fails. Users can manually:There is no "AI Badgr gateway" or similar retry/routing middleware in the codebase as of v0.2.0. However, this is a valuable feature request — you're welcome to open a feature request or discuss it in Discussions to gather community interest.
For now, the workarounds mentioned in the earlier response remain the best path for users hitting this error.
