Got an API Error: Model stream ended with an invalid chunk or missing finish reason.

What happened?

I asked Gemini to organize my sandbox into a proper project. I had .sql and .py files
I got an API Error, but it did what I asked it to do.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the files to be organized into a python project with sql scripts that will be called from the python.

The issue reports an API error related to the model's response stream, which falls under 'area/models' and is classified as a 'kind/bug'. Since the requested action was still completed, the impact is moderate, making it a 'priority/p2'. The CLI version is old, so it needs retesting with a recent version.
