TL;DR

Use the offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file instead of reading the whole file to avoid exceeding the maximum allowed tokens.

Guidance

• Identify the large files that are causing the MaxFileReadTokenExceededError and consider splitting them into smaller chunks.
• Use the offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file, as suggested in the error message.
• Verify that the file content is not exceeding the maximum allowed tokens (10000) by checking the file size and token count before attempting to read it.
• Consider increasing the timeout value to handle larger files or slower network connections to avoid the AxiosError: timeout of 5000ms exceeded error.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more context, but the error message suggests using the offset and limit parameters in the API call, e.g., readFile(offset=0, limit=1000).

Notes

The provided error messages and code snippets are truncated, which may limit the ability to provide a complete solution. Additionally, the AxiosError: timeout of 5000ms exceeded error may be related to network connectivity or server response time issues.

Recommendation

Apply workaround by using the offset and limit parameters to read specific portions of the file, as this is a direct solution to the MaxFileReadTokenExceededError and can help avoid the AxiosError: timeout of 5000ms exceeded error.
