Fix ContextOverflowError
in LangChain
✅ Solution
ContextOverflowError in Langchain usually occurs when the combined length of your prompt and retrieved documents exceeds the context window of the LLM. To fix this, reduce the input size by shortening prompts, limiting the number or length of retrieved documents, or using a more efficient summarization technique to compress the context before passing it to the model. Consider using a model with a larger context window if feasible.
