Stabilize automations across Zapier, n8n, Make, Retool, Power Automate, and more.
Most “platform bugs” are not bugs at all — they are ordering, retries, dedupe, or time drift. This hub routes you to exact structural fixes with measurable acceptance targets.

## Common failure classes
- **Bootstrap race conditions**
Trigger fires before vector/index is ready.
→ [bootstrap-ordering.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/bootstrap-ordering.md)
- **Deployment deadlocks**
Infinite waits between worker, retriever, or webhook callbacks.
→ [deployment-deadlock.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/deployment-deadlock.md)
- **Pre-deploy collapse**
Wrong version triggered on first call after shipping.
→ [predeploy-collapse.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/predeploy-collapse.md)
- **Embedding vs semantic drift**
High similarity but wrong meaning.
→ [embedding-vs-semantic.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/embedding-vs-semantic.md)
- **Traceability breaks**
Citations do not match the source.
→ [retrieval-traceability.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/retrieval-traceability.md), [data-contracts.md](https://github.com/onestardao/WFGY/blob/main/ProblemMap/data-contracts.md)

## Minimal contract for any workflow
1. **Check readiness**
Verify `VECTOR_READY` and `INDEX_HASH` before RAG/LLM calls.
2. **Idempotency**
Always compute a dedupe key and block duplicates.
3. **Boundary contract**
Require `{snippet_id, section_id, source_url, offsets, tokens}`.
4. **Observability**
Log ΔS and λ across steps, alert if ΔS ≥ 0.60.
---
## FAQ for newcomers
**Why does my Zap/Flow run twice?**
Because triggers are at-least-once. Add idempotency keys to dedupe.
**Why did my webhook return 200 but no data was processed?**
You acknowledged before persisting. Always store → then process.
**Why do my cron jobs drift?**
Local timezone drift. Always store schedules in UTC.
**Why do retries overload my API?**
You used immediate retries. Add exponential backoff with jitter.
**Why does everything work in dev but break in prod?**
Because of boot order. Index not warmed, wrong analyzer, or cache empty.
