Hi @VincentJGeisler! I'm here to help out the maintainers and am going to see if I can fix the issue with OpenRouter not working properly. I'll investigate why the extension is spinning without providing responses when using OpenRouter with the qwen3 coder model. Thanks for reporting this!

Hi @VincentJGeisler! I've created a pull request to fix the OpenRouter issue: #6233

The fix includes:

• Enhanced error handling with detailed logging and user-friendly error messages
• A 30-second timeout mechanism to prevent the extension from hanging indefinitely
• Better handling for model availability errors (like when a model is not found)

This should resolve the issue where the extension was spinning without providing any response when using OpenRouter with the qwen3 coder model. The PR is currently going through CI checks.
