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 -
Deployment deadlocks
Infinite waits between worker, retriever, or webhook callbacks.
→ deployment-deadlock.md -
Pre-deploy collapse
Wrong version triggered on first call after shipping.
→ predeploy-collapse.md -
Embedding vs semantic drift
High similarity but wrong meaning.
→ embedding-vs-semantic.md -
Traceability breaks
Citations do not match the source.
→ retrieval-traceability.md, data-contracts.md
Minimal contract for any workflow
- Check readiness
VerifyVECTOR_READYandINDEX_HASHbefore RAG/LLM calls. - Idempotency
Always compute a dedupe key and block duplicates. - Boundary contract
Require{snippet_id, section_id, source_url, offsets, tokens}. - 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.
