Build Fix

Systematically resolve build errors by fixing them one at a time and verifying after each fix.

Steps

1. Run the project build command:

   • Detect the build system (npm, pnpm, yarn, cargo, go, make, etc.).
   • Run the appropriate build command and capture all output.

   npm run build 2>&1
   tsc --noEmit
   

2. Parse the build errors:

   • Extract each error with its file path, line number, and message.
   • Group errors by file to understand the scope.
   • Identify the total count of errors.

3. Prioritize the errors:

   • Fix type errors and import errors first — they often cascade.
   • Fix errors in dependency order (utilities before components that use them).
   • Start with the first error in the output, as later errors may be caused by earlier ones.

4. Fix one error at a time:

   • Read the affected file to understand context.
   • Apply the minimal fix needed.
   • Do not refactor or improve unrelated code during this process.

5. Re-run the build after each fix:

   • Verify the fixed error is resolved.
   • Check that no new errors were introduced.
   • If new errors appear that were not in the original output, revert the last change and try a different approach.

6. Repeat steps 4-5 until the build passes cleanly.

7. Run the test suite after the build succeeds:

   • Ensure no tests are broken by the fixes.
   • If tests fail, fix them before considering the task complete.

If a Fix Introduces New Errors

• Revert the change immediately.
• Re-read the error message and surrounding code more carefully.
• Consider whether the error is a symptom of a deeper issue.
• Try an alternative approach.

If the Build Has Too Many Errors (50+)

• Check if a major dependency or configuration change caused the cascade.
• Review recent commits for large-scale changes.
• Consider reverting the problematic commit and reapplying changes incrementally.

Output

A clean build with zero errors and all tests passing.
