Fail the Save on an Empty Completion, Not a Green Toast

Описание и применение

Проблема: пустой ответ от модели считается успешным сохранением, что приводит к ложному зеленому уведомлению. Решение: проверять текст завершения, отклонять пустые/обрезанные ответы, возвращать статус «failed» и показывать причину в UI.

Задача

An empty completion from an LLM provider is treated as a successful save, leading to a green toast in the UI even though no text was stored.

Результат

Implemented a contract that treats empty completions as failures, preventing misleading success indicators and ensuring data integrity.

Рабочий процесс

• Receive save request from UI
• Call LLM provider for completion
• Check completion text and finish_reason
• If empty or truncated, mark invoice as failed and return status 'failed' with reason
• If valid, persist notes and return status 'saved'
• UI reads JSON status and shows draft or success accordingly

Доказательства

An empty completion is a failed user action, even when the free server stayed up and the model call did not throw.

Источник

The UI may render a spinner, the API may speak JSON, and the provider may speak a schema you do not own.

Источник

I keep the draft visible and show the reason beside the notes field, so the clicker can see that nothing was stored.
