Problem `pip show` insists the package is installed. The script insists otherwise: Reinstalling "fixed" it sometimes — by re-installing into whichever interpreter happened to run the script. The bug came back the next time anyone's PATH changed.…

Problem After converting a TypeScript service to native ESM (`"type": "module"`), the build passed and the server died at boot: The file exists at exactly that path, one `.js` away. Every relative import in the codebase had the same latent problem;…

Problem The API's CORS middleware is correct — staging proves it, with a browser pointed directly at the staging origin. Production fails on every non-simple request (anything with `Authorization` or a JSON content-type triggers a preflight): The…

Problem Our API validates comma-separated token lists with a single regex. A load test passed clean. Then a user pasted a 60-token list with one typo at the end, and the request never came back. nginx reported: Root cause The pattern was: The group…

Problem An install that was interrupted (disk full is the usual suspect), and every attempt to recover fails differently: The classic fix — delete `node_modules` and reinstall — runs, claims success, and the app still crashes at import time with a…

Problem Strict mode flagged a value we had demonstrably just checked: Line 40: `if (!user.profile) return;`. Line 44: `user.profile.name` — flagged. The check is right there. The compiler is not stupid; something is happening between the lines that…

Problem A subscription stayed "trialing" after a successful payment. No exception, no log line: Stripe had tried to deliver `invoice.paid` three times, given up, and moved on. Our system learned about the payment when the customer asked why their…

Problem A Worker that fans out to per-user personalization endpoints died the moment the fan-out list crossed 50: Staging (12 users) was green for a month. Production (60 users) failed every request instantly. Nothing in the code had changed. Root…

Problem Our PreToolUse hook, a lint gate wired to `./scripts/check.sh`, worked perfectly for weeks. Then a teammate ran `claude` from inside `packages/web/` and every edit produced: No blocking, no hard failure. The hook just stopped doing its job,…

Problem The API accepted 10MB uploads in dev. Production rejected anything over 1MB with an HTML error page before the request ever reached the app: The app's multipart limit was set to 50MB. The rejection came from a tier of the stack nobody had…

Problem Deployments rolled out, pods restarted, and the service sent them zero traffic: The app was demonstrably fine — `kubectl exec ... curl localhost:3000/api/health` returned 200. The probe said 404. Both were telling the truth. Root cause The…

Problem A freshly minted token rejected by the very next service: The token was valid for 30 seconds (short-lived by design for a service-to-service call). The validator's clock was 35 seconds behind the issuer's. Every token born after the skew…
