Add up to 3 URLs

Error message

Add up to 3 URLs

What it means

Guard in askai project Create: the caller passed a nil or empty urls slice when creating a project. The code substitutes a default URL list and caps it, so this message reflects the 'Add up to 3 URLs' constraint applied to project initialization.

Solutions

1. Limit the urls slice to 3 entries before calling Create (truncate or reject in the UI/API layer)
2. Split into multiple projects if more than 3 seed URLs are genuinely needed
3. Note the quirk: the count check uses the original urlsCount even if urls was nil; always pass a non-nil slice of at most 3 URLs

Example fix

// before
urls := []string{"a.com", "b.com", "c.com", "d.com"}
askai.Create(domain, urls) // error
// after
if len(urls) > 3 { urls = urls[:3] }
askai.Create(domain, urls)

if len(urls) > 3 {
    return errors.New("askai.Create accepts at most 3 URLs")
}
if len(urls) == 0 {
    urls = []string{"http://" + domain}
}

if err := askai.Create(domain, urls); err != nil {
    if strings.Contains(err.Error(), "Add up to 3 URLs") {
        return fmt.Errorf("please select at most 3 seed URLs (got %d)", len(urls))
    }
    return err
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling askai.Create(Domain, urls) where len(urls) > 3 — e.g. a frontend submitting a multi-URL form without a client-side limit or a bulk import passing many seed URLs.

Common situations: A form allowing unlimited URL inputs; an API consumer batching all site variants (www, m., blog) into one Create call; migrating data from another tool with more seed URLs per project.
