What is going on
You asked Claude Code for one change. It edited several files, and now the app shows an error, a blank page, or will not build. You cannot tell which edit caused it.
Error messages you might see
Common causes
- The request was broad, so related files were changed as well.
- A package was added or updated, which changed other packages with it.
- An error was silenced instead of fixed, by removing a check or a setting.
- A setting or key exists on your computer but was never added where the app runs.
How to fix it
- See what changed with
git statusandgit diff. - Save the current state first, on a new branch if you can, so nothing is lost.
- Undo the part that broke it:
git restore path/to/filefor one file, or use/rewindfor edits made by Claude Code. - Read the first error in the log, not the last. The later ones are often caused by the first.
- Ask for the change again in small steps, and run the app after each one.
- Ask Claude Code to explain a change before accepting it. A part you cannot follow is the part to show a developer.

Questions
Can I get back to the working version?
Yes, if the project is in git. Commit your current state, then restore the files that broke, or revert the commit.
How do I avoid this next time?
Commit before each task and ask for one small change at a time.
