With no breaking C API changes and backward compatibility, upgrading is low-risk.</span></span></sup></li>\n<li><strong>functools.partial</strong>: Now a method descriptor (wrap in <code>staticmethod()</code> to preserve old behavior)</li>\n</ul>\n<h2>How to Identify the Specific Issue</h2>\n<p>Since I can't see your specific function code, here's how you can identify what broke:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Run the code with Python 3.14</strong> and check the error message</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Look for these common error patterns</strong>:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><code>ImportError</code> or <code>AttributeError</code> for removed classes/functions</li>\n<li><code>TypeError</code> for changed function signatures</li>\n<li><code>ValueError</code> for deprecated argument patterns</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Check if your function uses any of these</strong>:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Asyncio child watcher functionality</li>\n<li>AST node classes like <code>Num</code>, <code>Str</code>, <code>Bytes</code></li>\n<li>argparse with nested groups</li>\n<li>itertools with copy/pickle operations</li>\n<li>pathlib with extra arguments</li>\n</ul>\n</li>\n</ol>\n<h2>Next Steps</h2>\n<p>If you can share either:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>The actual error message you're getting when running with Python 3.14, or</li>\n<li>The specific function code from lines 104-150</li>\n</ul>\n<p>I can provide more targeted guidance on exactly what needs to be fixed.</p>\n<p>The guidance library you're using may need updates to be compatible with Python 3.14, as many AI/ML libraries use features that were affected by these changes.</p>","md":"I wasn't able to retrieve the specific function code from the GitHub link you provided, but I can help you understand what types of changes in Python 3.14 commonly break existing code.\n\n## Major Breaking Changes in Python 3.14\n\nBased on the official Python 3.14 documentation, here are the most significant changes that could affect existing functions:\n\n### Removed asyncio Components\nPython 3.14 removed several asyncio classes and functions that were deprecated since Python 3.12 [^1]:\n- `AbstractChildWatcher`, `FastChildWatcher`, `MultiLoopChildWatcher`, `PidfdChildWatcher`, `SafeChildWatcher`, `ThreadedChildWatcher`\n- `AbstractEventLoopPolicy.get_child_watcher()`, `AbstractEventLoopPolicy.set_child_watcher()`\n- `get_child_watcher()`, `set_child_watcher()`\n\n### Removed AST Classes\nSeveral AST node classes were removed [^1]:\n- `Bytes`, `Ellipsis`, `NameConstant`, `Num`, `Str` (all deprecated aliases of `Constant`)\n- Properties `Constant.n` and `Constant.s` were also removed\n\n### Removed argparse Features\n- `BooleanOptionalAction` parameters: `type`, `choices`, and `metavar`\n- Nesting of argument groups now raises `ValueError`\n\n### Other Significant Removals\n- **itertools**: Removed support for copy, deepcopy, and pickle operations on itertools iterators [^1]\n- **pathlib**: Removed support for passing additional keyword arguments to `Path()` and additional positional arguments to `relative_to()` and `is_relative_to()`\n- **sqlite3**: Removed `version` and `version_info` (use `sqlite_version` and `sqlite_version_info` instead)\n- **urllib**: Removed `Quoter` class and `URLopener`/`FancyURLopener` classes\n\n### Behavioral Changes\n- **Multiprocessing**: Default start method changed from 'fork' to 'forkserver' on Unix platforms (except macOS) [^1]\n- **Garbage Collection**: Now incremental, changing the behavior of `gc.collect()` [^1]\n- **functools.partial**: Now a method descriptor (wrap in `staticmethod()` to preserve old behavior)\n\n## How to Identify the Specific Issue\n\nSince I can't see your specific function code, here's how you can identify what broke:\n\n1. **Run the code with Python 3.14** and check the error message\n2. **Look for these common error patterns**:\n - `ImportError` or `AttributeError` for removed classes/functions\n - `TypeError` for changed function signatures\n - `ValueError` for deprecated argument patterns\n\n3. **Check if your function uses any of these**:\n - Asyncio child watcher functionality\n - AST node classes like `Num`, `Str`, `Bytes`\n - argparse with nested groups\n - itertools with copy/pickle operations\n - pathlib with extra arguments\n\n## Next Steps\n\nIf you can share either:\n- The actual error message you're getting when running with Python 3.14, or\n- The specific function code from lines 104-150\n\nI can provide more targeted guidance on exactly what needs to be fixed.\n\nThe guidance library you're using may need updates to be compatible with Python 3.14, as many AI/ML libraries use features that were affected by these changes.","profile":{"id":null,"name":null,"subtitle":"State of the art deep research (>30 secs)","model":"ki_research","model_name":"Research","model_provider":"kagi","model_input_limit":1000000,"recommended":false,"model_info":"\n\n<div class=\"heading\">\n <div class=\"left\">\n \n \n \n <svg class=\"model-icon icon-xs\" data-model=\"ki_research\">\n <use href=\"#icon-kagi\"/>\n </svg>\n <h3>\n \n <span class=\"model-provider\">Kagi</span>\n \n <span class=\"model-name\">none</span>\n </h3>\n </div>\n\n \n <a href=\"/settings?p=custom_assistant&id=none\">\n <svg class=\"icon-sm edit-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n <use href=\"#icon-pencil\" />\n </svg>\n </a>\n \n</div>\n\n\n<hr />\n<ul>\n \n <li>\n <h4>\n Cost\n </h4>\n <span>\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n <div class=\"score\" aria-label=\"Expensive\">\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-cost --high\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-cost --high\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-cost --high\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-cost --high\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-cost --high\"></div>\n \n \n </div>\n</span>\n </li>\n <li>\n <h4>\n Quality\n </h4>\n <span>\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n <div class=\"score\" aria-label=\"Rated 5 out of 5\">\n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n </div>\n</span>\n </li>\n <li>\n <h4>\n Speed\n </h4>\n <span>\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n <div class=\"score\" aria-label=\"Rated 1 out of 5\">\n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"unfilled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"unfilled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"unfilled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"unfilled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n </div>\n</span>\n </li>\n <li>\n <h4>\n Privacy\n </h4>\n <span>\n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n\n <div class=\"score\" aria-label=\"Rated 4 out of 5\">\n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"filled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n \n \n <div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"unfilled-bubble\"></div>\n \n \n </div>\n</span>\n </li>\n <li class=\"divider\" aria-hidden=\"true\"></li>\n <li>\n <h4>Last updated</h4>\n <span class=\"date\">\n \n \n 2025-11-18\n \n \n </span>\n </li>\n \n</ul>\n","model_provider_name":"Kagi","internet_access":true,"personalizations":false,"shortcut":null,"is_default_profile":false},"metadata":"<li>\n <span class=\"attribute\">Model</span>\n <span class=\"value\"><i class=\"icon-xs mr-2\"><svg><use href=\"#icon-kagi\"></use></svg></i>Research</span>\n</li>\n<li>\n <span class=\"attribute\">Version</span>\n <span class=\"value\">ki_research-2025-11-18</span>\n</li>\n<li>\n <span class=\"attribute\">Speed (tok/s)</span>\n <span class=\"value\">47</span>\n</li>\n<li>\n <span class=\"attribute\">Tokens</span>\n <span class=\"value\">94,953</span>\n</li>\n<li>\n <span class=\"attribute\">Cost / Total ($)</span>\n <span class=\"value\">0.51 / 0.51</span>\n</li>\n<li>\n <span class=\"attribute\">End to end time (s)</span>\n <span class=\"value\">98.77</span>\n</li>\n\n","documents":[]}]
