What did you expect to happen?

My instructions were very clear. It failed to action over and over again, burned all my tokens across my API and broke the budget on my billing account. This wasn't a difficult request. It wasted hours of time and also my money. This is just one session of many, I still haven't achieved the objective.

Login information

I've used both Google Account and API key here, it wasted my entire API billing and broke my budget. It also maxed out most of my Google account. On 3.1-flash-lite-preview it just wastes my time and gets it wrong every time

Anything else we need to know?

This is really bad, I want to like Gemini but everybody tells me to use Claude.
