| name | dev-server |
| description | Monitor and auto-fix the development environment. Use when: debugging backend/frontend errors, watching log streams, diagnosing startup failures, or running make dev. |
Dev Server
Starting the Dev Environment
make dev
make dev-docker
Backend: http://localhost:8000 · API docs: http://localhost:8000/api/docs
Frontend: http://localhost:5173
If make dev fails, check docker compose ps to verify Postgres is healthy.
Error Detection Patterns
Backend (FastAPI) — Structured JSON Logs
| Pattern | Meaning | Fix |
|---|
"level": "ERROR" | Application error | Read traceback, module, lineno fields |
ModuleNotFoundError | Missing dependency | cd backend && uv add <package> |
sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError | Database connection failed | Check Postgres is running, migrations are current |
sqlalchemy.exc.ProgrammingError: relation "X" does not exist | Missing migration | cd backend && uv run alembic upgrade head |
pydantic.ValidationError | Schema field mismatch | Compare request payload against Pydantic model |
ImportError: cannot import name 'X' from 'app.models' | Model not exported | Add import to backend/app/models/__init__.py |
Frontend (Vite/React)
| Pattern | Meaning | Fix |
|---|
TS\d{4}: (e.g., TS2345) | TypeScript error | Read file path + line number from message |
[vite] Internal server error | Build failure | Read full error below the message |
Module not found: Can't resolve | Missing package | cd frontend && npm install or add the dependency |
Uncaught Error: | React runtime error | Read component stack trace |
[hmr] Failed to reload | HMR failure (usually syntax) | File path is in the message |
Auto-Fix Workflow
When an error is detected:
- Classify: syntax, type, import, runtime, or database error
- Locate: extract file path and line number from the error output
- Check recent changes:
git diff HEAD~1 -- <file>
- Read the file: open at the relevant line, read 20 lines of surrounding context
- Fix: apply the minimal change to resolve the error
- Verify: wait for hot-reload, confirm the error is gone
Verification
make verify
