HI Danny
thank a lot!.. worked as a charm for some simple instructions and 'low
tokens request'
But , when using a complex system instruction which requires some work on
the Model side i am getting back this
Traceback (most recent call last):

Any idea on how i can get around it> can i somehow control how much to wait
for a Model response?
Kind regards
Marco
