Gotchas

  • Use provider model ID "qwen3-235b-a22b-instruct-2507-maas", not the LLMReference slug "qwen3-235b-a22b-instruct-2507".
  • For Google-published models use the model name directly, e.g. "gemini-2.0-flash-001". For third-party publishers (Anthropic, Meta, etc.) use the full publisher path, e.g. "publishers/anthropic/models/claude-3-5-sonnet-v2@20241022".
  • The examples expect GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT; rename it only if your application config maps the new variable.
