Cascade Build Fails - Missing Dependency
Gradle build fails with 'cannot find symbol' errors or 'unresolved dependency' when Cascade generated code that uses libraries not in your classpath. The generated code imports classes that don't exist in your project.
Cascade suggests library usage without automatically updating build configuration.
Error Messages You Might See
error: cannot find symbol: class ObjectMapper
error: unresolved reference: com.fasterxml.jackson
build.gradle.kts: Could not resolve dependency
Common Causes
- Cascade generated code using library (e.g., Jooq, Testcontainers) not in build.gradle.kts
- Cascade imported classes from optional/transitive dependencies not explicitly declared
- Version mismatch: Cascade used API from newer library version than currently declared
- Cascade suggested removing dependency that other code still depends on
How to Fix It
Review Cascade-generated imports to identify missing libraries. Add dependencies to build.gradle.kts with appropriate versions. Ensure version alignment with existing dependencies. Run './gradlew compileKotlin' to verify build. Consider dependency management tools to detect conflicts.

Hey I'm Sage! Im a Boston area software engineer who grew up in South Florida. Ive worked at a ton of cool places like a telehealth kidney care startup that took part in a billion dollar merger (Cricket health/Interwell health), a boutique design agency where I got to work on a ton of exciting startups including a photography education app, a collegiate Esports league and more (Philosophie), a data analytics as a service startup in Cambridge (MA) as well as at Phillips and MIT Lincoln Lab where I designed and developed novel network security visualizations and analytics. I've been writing code and furiously devoted to using computers to make people’s lives easier for about 17 years. My degree is in making computers make pretty lights and sounds. Outside of work I love hip hop, the Celtics, professional wrestling, magic the gathering, photography, drumming, and guitars (both making and playing them)

Jacek Rozanski
Senior PHP/Symfony developer and DevOps engineer with 20+ years of professional experience, running opcode.pl (web development agency, est. 2004).
Day job: I'm the sole backend developer at merketing company where I own and maintain 11 PHP/Symfony microservices on AWS (ECS Fargate, RDS, S3, CloudFront), handle the full CI/CD pipeline (Bitbucket Pipelines, Docker), and manage monitoring with Sentry and CloudWatch. These services handle high request volumes in production every month.
What I bring to AI-built apps:
- I audit and fix security issues (OWASP methodology), performance bottlenecks, and architectural problems in codebases generated by Cursor, Claude Code, Lovable, Bolt, and v0
- I refactor AI-generated prototypes into production-grade applications with proper error handling, testing, and clean architecture (SOLID, DDD, hexagonal architecture)
- I set up the infrastructure AI tools don't touch: AWS hosting, CI/CD pipelines, automated deployments, database optimization, monitoring, and alerting
- I integrate external services: payment providers, email systems, partner APIs, SSO/auth
Tech stack: PHP 8.x, Symfony, React, Next.js, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Docker, AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, SQS/SNS, CloudFront), Terraform, Supabase. I also use AI tools daily (Claude Code, Cursor) in my own workflow, so I understand both the strengths and the gaps in AI-generated code.
Based in Poland (CET timezone). Available for async work and calls during EU/US business hours.
