Hey, this is a temporary capacity issue. When demand for Composer 2 is high, some users may see this error. The message that mentions Composer 2 shows up no matter which model you picked because requests are routed through that backend.

A couple of things to try:

1. Switch to Auto mode. It will route your request to an available model.
2. Wait a few minutes and retry. These capacity spikes are usually temporary.

This should fix itself as demand settles down. Let me know if you’re still seeing this after trying Auto mode.
