SERVER_ERROR

Error message

Server error: ${errorMessage}

What it means

The endpoint returned an HTTP 5xx status — a server-side failure at the provider (overload, upstream crash, gateway timeout). The response body's error message (or statusText) is included, and the parsed errorData is attached as details.

Solutions

1. Retry with exponential backoff — 5xx is usually transient
2. If using a local/self-hosted server, check its logs and memory (reduce context length or model size)
3. Check the provider status page for ongoing incidents
4. Inspect attached errorData for the provider's specific error message

const isServerError = (e: unknown): e is InvokeError =>
  e instanceof InvokeError && e.code === 'SERVER_ERROR'

try {
  return await withRetry(() => client.invoke(req), { retries: 3, on: isServerError })
} catch (e) {
  if (isServerError(e)) notifyOps(`Provider 5xx: ${e.message}`)
  throw e
}

When it happens

Trigger: invoke() receives 500/502/503/504 from the provider: OpenAI incident, overloaded local inference server, OOM'd llama.cpp process, reverse proxy (nginx) returning 502 because the backend crashed.

Common situations: Provider outage (check status page); local model server running out of memory or crashing mid-request; gateway/proxy misrouting; very large prompts causing the upstream to time out and return 504.
