await resp.text()

Error message

await resp.text()

What it means

Thrown by NCompass._embed when the NCompass embedding API responds with a non-2xx status; the raw response body becomes the error message. NCompass is NVIDIA's NIM-style endpoint, so failures usually trace back to the Authorization bearer token or the endpoint URL.

Solutions

1. Inspect the body text for 401/403 (regenerate apiKey) vs 404 (fix base URL/model name)
2. Regenerate the NCompass/NVIDIA API key and update config.json
3. Verify the model name and that the endpoint is provisioned in your account

null

function isAuthError(e: unknown): boolean { return e instanceof Error && /401|403|unauthorized|forbidden/i.test(e.message); }

for (let attempt = 0; attempt < 3; attempt++) {
  try { return await llm.embed(chunks); }
  catch (e) { if (isAuthError(e)) throw e; await sleep(2 ** attempt * 500); }
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling embeddings with provider ncompass where the POST fails: invalid/expired apiKey, endpoint not yet provisioned, or malformed request JSON.

Common situations: Expired NVIDIA API token, wrong nvidiaApiBase, or calling an embedding model the key doesn't have access to.
