I am doing C1M3\_Assignment in Agentic AI course, assignment tests pass successfully, but grading fails every time with the below error message:

Failed test case: generate\_research\_report\_with\_tools raised BadRequestError: Error code: 400 - {‘error’: {‘message’: ‘you must provide a model parameter’, ‘type’: ‘invalid\_request\_error’, ‘param’: None, ‘code’: None}}.  
Expected:  
no exception,  
but got:  
Error code: 400 - {‘error’: {‘message’: ‘you must provide a model parameter’, ‘type’: ‘invalid\_request\_error’, ‘param’: None, ‘code’: None}}.

Did you save your notebook before you submitted it for grading?

It says here you have to provide a model name; usually, this is something like gpt-mini…
