Thank you for the detailed report @dsoasti. The error you're seeing is a 429 rate limit from OpenRouter when using the free tier of
meta-llama/llama-3.3-70b-instruct:free.What happened
Open Router's free models have strict rate limits. When you tried to generate a design, the upstream provider returned a 429 status, which Open CoDesign correctly surfaces as a
PROVIDER_ERROR(error code:PROVIDER_ERROR). The log confirms:The error window appeared because the generation failed – it's the app's way of notifying you that the request didn't go through.
How to resolve
meta-llama/llama-3.3-70b-instruct(without:free) and add your OpenRouter API key in settings. Paid tiers have much higher rate limits.Code context
Error handling for provider failures lives in
apps/desktop/src/main/ipc/generate.ts(around line 120–150) where the main process captures provider errors and forwards them to the renderer. The specific error message comes from thepi-aiadapter inpackages/providers/.We have seen similar reports (e.g., #385, #372) – this is expected behavior for rate-limited free endpoints and not a bug in Open CoDesign itself.
Feel free to attach the diagnostics bundle you saved – it may help confirm there are no other issues. If you continue to see this error with a paid model, please let us know.
