FAILED_PRECONDITION Error with RAG Implementation

[JGSolutions]

Describe the bug
Implementing a semantic search for board games using Firestore and the RAG implementation with the retriever based from this article
https://firebase.google.com/docs/genkit/plugins/firebase

I did generate vector embeddings for 60K for the Firestore documents and defined a Flow (as below).
When I increase the limit in the retrieve method I always get this error:
FAILED_PRECONDITION: Generation resulted in no candidates matching provided output schema.

If I submit the same prompt with a limit of 5 instead, it works as expected.

To Reproduce

export const boardGameSuggestionFlow = defineFlow(
    {
        name: "boardGameSuggestionFlow",
        inputSchema: z.string(),
        outputSchema: GamesFlowOutput,
    },
    async (query: string) => {
        const docs = await retrieve({
            retriever: retrieverRef,
            query,
            options: {
                limit: 30, ---> This value always getting an error. If set to 5 it works
            },
        });

        const promptDot = await prompt("boardGameSuggestion");
        const result = await promptDot.generate({
            input: {
                query,
            },
            context: docs, // i always get docs response no matter what prompt i request
        });

        const { games } = result.output() as { games: Games[] };

        return games;
    }
);

Expected behavior
Just get the results as expected with the same query

Runtime (please complete the following information):

• OS: MacOS - latest version
• genKit 0.5.2

** Node version

• node version 20.10.0

Additional context
How does the generate() and LLMs work?
Also takes a very long time to get a response. Is there a way to increase performance?

Another question about setting the contentField property in the retriever.

Can i combine text into one field. For example i have 3 fields: category, mechanics and description and created a new field called 'content' that combined these 3 fields into one paragraph. Which I created a vector embedding based on this field.

Another question: Do i need to manipulate the docs data to certain type of object of the LLM to understand better?

Hey, what did you increase the limit to, to get the error? There is a limit of 1000 in firestore but presumably this error happened with fewer than 1000? I see you used 30 in your code

Can you share your prompt, and your genkit config? In particular what model are you using?

It seems maybe the large context is confusing the model a bit, and it's unable to produce a response in the output format you requested.
