**[BUG] 410 Error on Code Checker Blocking Final Quiz Certification โ€” Since November 2025**

I'm posting here because I've been blocked from receiving my course certificates for both the Agents Course and the MCP Course due to a platform-side bug that has been persisting since November 2025 โ€” over 5 months now.


The Bug:

Every time the code checker evaluates my final quiz submission, it throws the following error:

Error checking code: 410 Client Error: Gone for url:
https://api-inference.huggingface.co/models/Qwen/Qwen2.5-Coder-32B-Instruct/v1/chat/completions
https://api-inference.huggingface.co is no longer supported.
Please use https://router.huggingface.co instead.

Screenshot 2026-04-07 015654

The checker is still calling the deprecated api-inference.huggingface.co endpoint on the backend. The error message itself confirms this is a platform issue โ€” not a problem with my code.


The Impact:

  • My final quiz shows 0 marks despite my code being correct and running successfully
  • This has happened on both the Agents Course and MCP Course final quizzes
  • I have been waiting since November 2025 for a fix that never came
  • I am currently applying for internships and these certifications are the official proof of the work I've done. Without them, I have nothing to back my projects with when applying

What I'm requesting:

  1. A fix to update the course checker to use router.huggingface.co instead of the deprecated endpoint
  2. Manual review of my submissions for both courses
  3. Issuance of the certificates I have earned โ€” the only reason I don't have them is this infrastructure bug

I have screenshots of my correct code and the 410 error ready to share. I am not asking for anything I haven't earned โ€” I just need someone to unblock this.

Is anyone else facing this same issue? Would love to know if this is affecting other students too.

Thank you ๐Ÿ™
