Resolves #149

Why the bug occurs

The bug occurs because the application fails to properly access the llama-3.1-70b-versatile model due to incorrect handling of the API key and network requests. Specifically, the application might not be correctly retrieving the user's API key, or it's not correctly handling network configurations, leading to authentication failures or inability to reach the API endpoint.

How to reproduce

1. Run the application and attempt to use features that access the llama-3.1-70b-versatile model.
2. Observe the error message: "Failed to access llama-3.1-70b-versatile, please check network or API key".
3. Attempt to resolve the issue by using a VPN or proxy (commonly referred to as "climbing over the wall" or "using a ladder").
4. Notice that the issue persists even after adjusting network settings.

How to fix

1. Ensure Proper API Key Retrieval:

   • Verify that the application is correctly retrieving the API key from the environment variables or configuration files.
   • In the codebase (possibly in lib/api.js or similar modules), check for code that reads the GROQ_API_KEY or equivalent.
   • Update the code to ensure it correctly reads and uses the API key provided by the user.

2. Validate API Key Usage:

   • Confirm that the API key is included in all requests to the llama-3.1-70b-versatile API.
   • Modify the request headers to include the API key, for example:

     const headers = {
       'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}`,
       'Content-Type': 'application/json'
     };

   • Ensure that all API calls utilize these headers.

3. Improve Network Request Handling:

   • Check the network request logic to handle different network environments, including those behind proxies or VPNs.
   • Use libraries that respect system proxy settings or provide options to specify proxy configurations.
   • Implement retries or fallback mechanisms in case of transient network failures.

4. Enhance Error Messages:

   • Update error handling to provide more detailed feedback. Instead of a generic message, include specific error codes or suggestions.
   • For example:

     if (error.response) {
       console.error(`Error ${error.response.status}: ${error.response.data.message}`);
     } else {
       console.error('Network error, please check your connection or API key.');
     }

5. Update Documentation:

   • In README.md or relevant setup guides, add instructions on how to set up and configure the API key.
   • Provide troubleshooting steps for network issues, including the use of proxies or VPNs.

6. Test Across Environments:

   • Test the application in different network settings, including with and without VPNs or proxies, to ensure consistent behavior.
   • Validate that the application can handle various user configurations gracefully.

By addressing the API key handling and improving network request logic, users should be able to access the llama-3.1-70b-versatile model without encountering the failure message, even when using different network configurations.
