It is probably because the version of the smolegents library is not compatible. InferenceClientModel was formerly known as HfApiModel.
Therefore, I recommend updating the version of the smolegents library or using HfApiModel.
Updating smolagents
pip install -U smolagents
Use HfApiModel with older smolagents
pip install smolagents==1.13.0
Appreciate your update, John.
could you please direct me to upgrade the smolagents here? i mean from where i need to run
pip install -U smolagents

pip install smolagents==1.14.0 in requirement.txt

smolagents==1.14.0
Yeah. That’s why smolagents==1.13.0 in official template. Might be solved in 1.20.0 (latest).
Thanks. I went with HFAPI instead of inferenceClientmodel. I modified the template script to use the tool to get time stamp. now , it is running but whatever prompt i give, it is throwing “error” message. any thoughts

To find the cause, click here to view the log. If only “Error” is displayed, it is impossible to determine the specific issue.
Thanks for your continuous support

This error can probably be avoided by adding pydantic==2.10.6 to requirements.txt. Probably.
