Navigation or Routing Not Working
Clicking links in your app goes to the wrong page, shows a 404, or doesn't navigate at all. The browser back button might not work correctly. Pages might reload entirely when they should transition smoothly.
Common Causes
- Routes not defined for all pages in the app
- Client-side routing conflicts with server-side routes
- Link components use wrong href or to prop
- Dynamic routes (like /user/123) not configured to handle the parameter
- Browser back button breaks because of incorrect history management
How to Fix It
- Check the browser URL when navigation fails — is it going to the right path?
- Look at the console for 404 errors or route not found warnings
- Verify all routes are defined in your app's router configuration
- If pages reload entirely on navigation, you might be using anchor tags instead of the framework's link component
- For dynamic routes, make sure the route parameter pattern is correct

Cursor ambassador and agentic tooling builder.
I've scaled systems, automated deployments, and built observability tools for AI coding workflows. I specialize in taking vibe-coded apps from broken prototype to production-ready: fixing Supabase auth/RLS, Stripe integrations, deployment pipelines, and cleaning up AI-generated spaghetti.
I build tools in this space (agentprobe, claudebin, micode) and understand both sides: how AI generates code and why it breaks.

I am a technologist and product builder dedicated to creating high-impact solutions at the intersection of AI and specialized markets. Currently, I am focused on PropScan (EstateGuard), an AI-driven SaaS platform tailored for the Japanese real estate industry, and exploring the potential of Archify.
As an INFJ-T, I approach development with a "systems-thinking" mindset—balancing technical precision with a deep understanding of user needs. I particularly enjoy the challenge of architecting Vertical AI SaaS and optimizing Small Language Models (SLMs) to solve specific, real-world business problems. Whether I'm in a CTO-level leadership role or hands-on with the code, I thrive on building tools that turn complex data into actionable value.

Get HelpFrequently Asked Questions
Clicking a link reloads the entire page. Is that wrong?
In a single-page app (React, Next.js), yes. You should be using the framework's Link component instead of regular anchor tags.
Direct URLs work but clicking links doesn't navigate. Why?
Your client-side router might not be configured correctly. The browser can load pages directly (server-side), but the JavaScript router needs to handle in-app navigation.
