TL;DR

The issue might be resolved by checking the compatibility of the CLI version with the model version or seeking guidance on swapping models using the CLI.

Guidance

  • Verify the CLI version (0.38.2) is compatible with the model version (gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview) to ensure support for model swapping.
  • Check the documentation or help command for the CLI to see if there are specific instructions or options for swapping models.
  • If the model swapping feature is not available in the current CLI version, consider reaching out to the development team or support for further assistance.

Notes

The provided information does not include specific error messages or detailed expectations, making it challenging to provide a precise fix. The guidance is based on the assumption that the issue is related to the CLI's ability to swap models.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Since the issue lacks detailed information about the error or the expected behavior, applying a workaround such as checking compatibility or seeking further guidance seems to be the most appropriate step.
