Hello, this error usually isn't a bug and occurs when your system doesn't have enough memory to load the model.

You may be able to fix by reducing contextLength in your configuration, trying smaller models, or changing your hardware setup. Continue might have a higher default context limit than other tools, so it's possible this error occurs in Continue but not other tools. For reference, see discussion on this issue: #6452

Example config:

models:
  - name: Deepseek r1
    provider: ollama

    defaultCompletionOptions:
