What happened?

I give an instruction and left my computer. During agent working, nobody ever touch keyboard\mouse. After I return to my computer, I saw " Request cancelled."

What did you expect to happen?

Since no input is given to computer, no “ Request cancelled.” should evert happen

TL;DR

The "Request cancelled" issue may be related to an inactivity timeout or an issue with the Gemini CLI session.

Guidance

  • Investigate the Gemini CLI configuration and documentation to see if there's an inactivity timeout setting that can be adjusted.
  • Check if the issue persists when using a different authentication method or when running the Gemini CLI in a sandbox environment.
  • Verify if the problem occurs with other commands or only with specific instructions.
  • Consider reaching out to the Gemini support team for further assistance, as the issue might be related to the specific version (0.38.0) or the Google authentication method.

Notes

The provided information is limited, and without more context or logs, it's challenging to determine the root cause of the issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Try adjusting the inactivity timeout setting (if available) or using a different authentication method to see if it resolves the issue.
