Any time I try to use a Foundry Local model in agent mode I get the following response (the \ missing between username and .vscode is not an editing mistake):
Sorry, your request failed. Please try again.

This appears to have been fixed in main foundry local: https://github.com/microsoft/Foundry-Local/issues/336.
windowsaistudio.openAIInferencePort seems to set the hosted port, instead of connecting to the already running instance, so I'm unable to test.
Ai toolkit extension version: 0.28.0
