Can you give the full command you ran to produce this error? This seems to be a syntax issue with how arguments were specified in the CLI.

As a workaround you may be able to set

generation_config: Optional[str] = None

here: https://github.com/jayelm/gisting/blob/main/src/arguments.py#L137-L138

to change the type of generation_config and see if that satisfies the omegaconf typechecker.

do you mean that add “generation_config: Optional[str] = None” into the function you mentioned?(above or substitute the pass line)
