This usually means a single prompt asked for too much at once — too many features, or a change that sweeps across the whole app in one go. It’s about how complex the request is, not how long your chat is.
Your work is saved. You just need to break this request into smaller pieces to continue.

​
What to do

1

Do it for one screen or one feature

Apply the change to a single screen first, then repeat for the next one in a follow-up message.
2

Ask for one thing at a time

Send a single change or feature per message instead of several at once.
3

Rephrase if it keeps happening

If the same prompt keeps failing, reword it and describe just the next step you want.

​
Splitting a big request

Most “request too large” prompts ask Bilt to do one thing everywhere at once. Do it one screen or one feature at a time instead, then repeat in follow-up messages. The pattern is the same every time: one screen or one feature per message, then a follow-up for the next.

Building from scratch?

If you’re still putting the app together, build it up in phases rather than all at once — see Scoping and iterating on your app.
