I’m setting up my regular old Openrouter API, after several failures of getting my local AI to connect to Pinegrow. But now I’m getting internal error 500, even though I’m able to use VS Code and BrowserSync. My AI starts the actions I’ve requested (change the color of all icons from blue to green); it shows 2 things that it will do:

1. Status Active: Identify all SVG Icons on the page, it completes that part and checks it off.
2. Part 2 (Change the color of each SVG Icon to green) It never finishes this objective.

Now if anyone know how to get a local AI setup in Pinegrow please let me know how you did it.

You get the error on the local AI or the remote one? Hard to follow 🙃

The local AI gives a different error, and with the use of one of the links at the bottom, I was able to fix that today, But, I’m just trying to resetup my old Openrouter API for the smart mode.
