# AI generation failures

### When to use

* Generation does not start after sending the prompt.
* Generation keeps “running” for a long time.
* The result comes back incomplete or inconsistent with the prompt.

### Quick checklist (2 min)

1. Simplify the prompt. Make a minimal version.
2. Generate again. Avoid multiple parallel submissions.
3. Reload the page. Try an incognito window.
4. Disable adblock/privacy extensions for the domain.

### Diagnosis

#### 1) Is what you asked for “executable”?

* The prompt has **goal**, **modules/entities**, and **minimal screens**.
* Avoid ambiguity: “a complete system” without scope explodes cost and time.

#### 2) Is the error network/UI related?

* Open the browser Console.
* Check if there is a failing request (401/403/429/5xx).

#### 3) Is the error capacity/limit related?

* If there is a “rate limit”, wait a few minutes and try again.
* Avoid giant prompts. Break them into steps.

### How to resolve (patterns)

* **Gets stuck halfway**: reduce the scope and generate in increments.
* **Poor specification**: force structure with sections and bullets.
* **Result missing parts**: ask for only 1 thing at a time (“add X”, then “adjust Y”).

### When to escalate

* The same minimal prompt fails 3 times.
* Repeatable 5xx error.
* Generation completes, but the app does not run even in Preview.
