failed workflow triage

Run npm test

FAIL src/build-summary.test.ts

Expected status to be "ready"

##[error]Process completed with exit code 1.

Likely category

Test failure

Start with the failing assertion, reproduce locally, then patch the expected status.

Core workflow

Paste the failed log. Get the next debugging move.

The MVP uses deterministic triage rules in the browser. It does not connect to your repository or send pasted logs to a server.

Why this exists

CI tools show where it failed. Teams still need the fix brief.

Find the failure signal

Pulls out common error lines, exit codes, failing commands, and test or build clues.

Translate logs into checks

Returns a short checklist that starts with the most likely local reproduction step.

Write the handoff

Creates a copyable PR or issue comment so the next developer has useful context.

Pricing hypothesis

Reserve early access before billing is connected.

Stripe is not configured for this experiment yet, so pricing is tested through demo requests and purchase-intent capture.

Solo

$15/month

For maintainers and solo builders who want saved analyses and repeatable fix checklists.

Team

$39/month

For small teams and agencies that need shared CI failure briefs and team playbooks.

Early access

Request the first usable version.

Tell us how often CI failures block your team and whether the pricing hypothesis is credible. The form stores locally and prepares a public-safe GitHub issue handoff.

This is a real purchase-intent or pilot request if the workflow matches our CI pain.

FAQ

Launch constraints are explicit.

Do I need to connect GitHub?

No. The MVP is paste-in only and does not require repo OAuth.

Does it run my CI?

No. It explains failed logs and generates a next-action brief. It does not trigger workflows.

Can I paste private logs?

For the MVP, analysis runs in the browser, but you should remove secrets and customer data first.

Is the diagnosis guaranteed?

No. Treat the result as a triage brief that helps you choose the next debugging step.
