this keeps happening

extent analysis

TL;DR

The issue is likely due to the user aborting a request, and a workaround could be to avoid aborting the request or increase the timeout.

Guidance

  • The error message AbortError: The user aborted a request suggests that the user is aborting the request, possibly by pressing esc as indicated by the (esc to cancel) prompt.
  • To mitigate this, ensure that the user is not aborting the request prematurely, or consider increasing the timeout to allow the operation to complete.
  • Verify that the issue persists even when the user does not abort the request.
  • Check the documentation for the @google/gemini-cli package to see if there are any configuration options or environment variables that can be used to adjust the timeout or abort behavior.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the @google/gemini-cli package version 0.38.0 or the auto-gemini-3 model version, and upgrading or changing these versions may resolve the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Increase the timeout or avoid aborting the request, as the root cause appears to be related to the user aborting the request.
