Why is Qwen3.8 refusing to write any actual code locally? It's just going round and round repeating design decisions, structure and a bunch of stuff. It will write a bit of code on screen but not to the project folder. Maddening!

Anyone got any hints on how to force it to write code? I have tried demanding but it just ignores. Using Pi with a couple of IQ_3 quants and a 16GB VRAM setup.
