# DynamicCache Error Fix - Quick Summary

## Problem
```

ERROR: Local model error: 'DynamicCache' object has no attribute 'seen_tokens'

```

**Result**: Quality Score 0.00 for all transcripts, no analysis extracted.

---

## Root Cause
Version incompatibility in transformers library's caching mechanism during model generation.

---

## βœ… Fixes Applied

### 1. Code Fix (llm.py)
Added `use_cache=False` parameter to disable problematic caching:

```python

outputs = query_llm_local.model.generate(

    **inputs,

    max_new_tokens=max_tokens,

    temperature=temperature,

    do_sample=temperature > 0,

    pad_token_id=query_llm_local.tokenizer.eos_token_id,

    use_cache=False  # ← Fixes DynamicCache error

)

```

**Trade-off**: ~10-20% slower generation, but error-free.

### 2. Enhanced Error Handling
- Better error messages with specific guidance
- Automatic detection of DynamicCache issues
- Recommendations for next steps

### 3. Diagnostic Tool
Created `fix_local_model.py` to diagnose and resolve issues automatically.

---

## πŸš€ Recommended Actions (Pick One)

### Option A: Upgrade Transformers (Quick Fix)
```bash

pip install --upgrade transformers

python -c "import transformers; print(transformers.__version__)"

```
**Expected**: Version 4.36.0 or higher

### Option B: Use HuggingFace API (Easiest)
```bash

# Get token from: https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens

export HUGGINGFACE_TOKEN='hf_your_token_here'

export USE_HF_API=True

```

### Option C: Use LMStudio (Best for Offline)
1. Download: https://lmstudio.ai/
2. Install and start server
3. Set environment:
```bash

export USE_LMSTUDIO=True

export LMSTUDIO_URL=http://localhost:1234

```

### Option D: Run Diagnostic
```bash

python fix_local_model.py

```
Automatically detects and guides you through fixes.

---

## Verification

After applying any fix, test:
```bash

python -c "from llm import query_llm_local; print(query_llm_local('Test', max_tokens=10))"

```

**Success**: Returns text (not error message)
**Still failing**: Try Option B or C above

---

## Files Modified/Created

βœ… **Modified**:
- `llm.py` - Added use_cache=False and better error handling

- `requirements.txt` - Added version compatibility notes



βœ… **Created**:

- `fix_local_model.py` - Diagnostic and fix script

- `TROUBLESHOOTING_DYNAMIC_CACHE.md` - Comprehensive guide (13KB)

- `DYNAMIC_CACHE_FIX_SUMMARY.md` - This quick reference

---

## Next Steps

1. **Choose a solution** (A, B, C, or D above)
2. **Apply the fix**
3. **Restart your application**
4. **Process a test transcript**
5. **Verify Quality Score > 0.00**

If issues persist, see `TROUBLESHOOTING_DYNAMIC_CACHE.md` for detailed guidance.

---

## Quick Reference

| Issue | Fix |
|-------|-----|
| Quality Score 0.00 | LLM is failing - apply fixes above |
| DynamicCache error | use_cache=False (already applied) + upgrade transformers |

| Slow processing | Use HF API (Option B) for speed |

| Offline required | Use LMStudio (Option C) |

| Not sure what to do | Run diagnostic (Option D) |
