Verified fix: PR #849 merged on . Fixed in v0.2.1 (first release published after the merge). Last checked .

Symptom

The task output prints, then the run crashes with AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'.

Evidence what you'll see

  • Using a self-hosted or third-party compatible endpoint
  • The endpoint's error response puts a plain string in 'error'

Cause

The client expects error responses to hold an object. A non-compliant endpoint returned a string, which broke parsing.
