Subject: Ask returns “Something went wrong” with no diagnostic information
Problem description:
When sending a message in Ask, the response is sometimes “Error / Something went wrong”. This message contains:
-
no indication of the cause (quota exhausted, server error, limit exceeded),
-
no error code,
-
no remaining quota indicator anywhere in the interface,
-
no way to know whether the issue is transient or permanent.
Reproduction:
-
Open
https://search.brave.com/ask -
Send a message of 154 characters
-
Receive “Something went wrong”
Expected:
A specific error message indicating the cause (quota reached, internal error, etc.) and, if applicable, when the quota resets.
