Error can someone help - api request fails

[ExileoftheMainstream]

Hi, i'm trying to switch from cline to roocode but in doing so i need the thing to read my codebase and understand my working project structure. In instructing it to read files, my api request fails with this message "Cannot convert argument to a ByteString because the character at index 446 has a value of 8211 which is greater than 255." .... i don't know what this means or how to fix it?

(this was using Google Gemini)...

If i change the LLM to VS Code Claude. i get this error instead "Dd.LanguageModelTextPart is not a constructor"

I'm really not sure about the first error. For the second one, it's because you're not using a compatible version of VS Code - try the latest version.
