Couldn't refine your prompt — your original is untouched. Send it as is or retry.

Resolve Runner errors for screenshots, canvas images, and prompt refinement: meaning, safe recovery steps, and how to verify the result.

Screenshots, canvas images, and prompt refinement

Messages you may see

  • Couldn't grab the screenshot. Try again, or upload an image instead.
  • Couldn’t add to chat. Please try again.
  • Only images can be added to chat
  • Couldn't send this image to chat. It's still on your canvas. Try again.
  • Couldn't improve this one — send it as written
  • Couldn't refine your prompt — your original is untouched. Send it as is or retry.
  • Failed to enhance prompt

These helpers failed to prepare content for a message. They do not require abandoning your original prompt or canvas image.

  1. If screenshot capture fails, retry once or upload a saved image.
  2. If sending media to chat fails, select an image, retry adding it, and check the attachment list. Videos are not supported by this action.
  3. If prompt refinement fails, send your original text as written or retry refinement.

Check: The image appears in the chat composer, or your intended prompt is ready to send.

If the error returns

Contact Support and community after one appropriate retry. Include the exact error, page or conversation URL, workspace/store, approximate time, and what you checked. Remove sign-in codes, credentials, payment details, and customer information.
