TL;DR

The WhatsApp bridge's exponential token consumption due to retained context from previous messages is likely the primary cause of token exhaustion.

Guidance

• Review the WhatsApp bridge configuration to understand how context is being retained and explore options to reset or limit context retention.
• Investigate the implementation of token usage metrics, potentially leveraging the discovered JSON file storing token usage metrics, to better monitor and manage token consumption.
• Consider reaching out to support or the development team for guidance on optimizing WhatsApp bridge configuration and token management.
• Examine the provided error logs to identify any patterns or clues that might indicate how the errors are related to the token exhaustion issue.

Example

No specific code snippet can be provided without more context on the WhatsApp bridge configuration or the custom script mentioned.

Notes

The issue seems to involve a combination of configuration, implementation, and potential bugs within the system. Without direct access to the system or more detailed documentation, providing a precise fix is challenging.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implement a temporary solution to monitor and limit token usage manually until a more permanent fix can be developed, potentially by utilizing the JSON file for token metrics or adjusting the WhatsApp bridge settings.
