Continue tries to open empty paths

[thor171]

Hi,
recently, I setup a local headless Ubuntu server with llama.cpp running llama-server in order to be able to use it in my whole local network.
Everything works fine so far, however when using Continue in VS Code and trying to work on my project files, Continue always tries to open empty file paths, which of course fails.

This is the config.yaml in my project workspace:

`name: Local Assistant
version: 1.0.0
schema: v1

models:

• name: GPT-OSS-120B
  provider: openai
  model: gpt-oss-120b
  apiBase: http://192.168.1.8:5000/v1
  roles:
  • chat
  • edit
  • apply
  • autocomplete
    parameters:
    temperature: 1.0
    top_p: 1.0
    top_k: 0
    max_context_length: 131072

context:

• provider: code`

This is the error I get:

read_file failed with the message: filepath` argument is required and must not be empty or whitespace-only. (type string)

Please try something else or request further instructions.`

Continue doesn't stop with one of those, it tries over and over in an endless loop to call an empty path.

Just to cross check, does this happen with other models like GPT-5 or Sonnet-4? Are you able to replicate?

Well, after some testing it seems there is a problem with gpt-oss-120b tool handling. gpt-oss-20b seems to have the same problem.
Using qwen3-coder-480b or qwen3-coder-30b everything is working fine.
I'm using the most recent Continue version and llama.cpp b6550 which is the latest release.

Got it. Thanks for replying!
There are upcoming improvements to GPT-OSS in the next releases.
