found a fix..

replace this:

def is_previously_failed_to_apply(self, link):
    file_name = "failed"
    file_path = self.output_file_directory / f"{file_name}.json"
    if not file_path.exists():
        with open(file_path, "w", encoding="utf-8") as f:
            json.dump([], f)
    with open(file_path, 'r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
        try:
            existing_data = json.load(f)
        except json.JSONDecodeError:
            logger.error(f"JSON decode error in file: {file_path}")
            return False
        
    for data in existing_data:
        data_link = data['link']
        if data_link == link:
            return True
            
    return False

with the existing, is_previously_failed_to_apply(self, link) function in the src/aihawk_job_manager.py file

There is a software fix for this in the works but for now you can also just create the file manually and write [] inside
