Troubleshooting
Money-saving checklist
These options do not consume Compute Credits or reduce usage significantly — use them in order:
Prefer manual edit for small changes: Text, colors, layout — use Manual edit at zero Compute Credits instead of Execute now every time.
Lock scope before execute: In Free consultation, agree what page / feature to change and what not to touch; vague asks (e.g. “everything feels slow”) can expand into a whole-app pass and spike usage.
Review the plan; avoid over-building: After you confirm to-dos, remove items you don’t need before execute; say “simplest path, only do X, don’t touch other modules.” If scope is unclear, consult first so a “medium” change doesn’t expand into a multi-module build that burns time and Compute Credits.
Reuse marketplace when you can: Remake a close App marketplace listing, then edit — often cheaper than rebuilding from scratch.
Consult before execute: See Consultation guide.
Start in Free consultation: Questions in execute mode cost Compute Credits; click Free consultation first for free discussion.
Stuck in a fix loop: See Feature fix troubleshooting guide.

Why can a small change cost a lot of Compute Credits?
Usage depends on complexity and blast radius, not only visible diff size. Changing copy is usually small; changing login, permissions, database fields, or checkout flows — even in one sentence — may touch many pages, APIs, and schemas. Surface size alone is not a reliable estimate. Broad wording (e.g. “optimize everything” / “all clients feel slow”) can also expand into a large scope that looks like a “small tweak” but is not. Before execute:- Describe the need in Free consultation, and state what to change and what not to touch.
- Ask the AI for affected pages, data, and features; confirm the blast radius is acceptable.
- Request a step list or todo breakdown.
- Confirm scope, then execute; prefer Manual edit for two-line copy or style tweaks.
- Batch related changes in one feature to avoid repeated project re-reads.
Break down first, execute second; roll back if you break something
To save Compute Credits and reduce rework:- Free consultation first Click Free consultation and ask Su Xiaoqiang for scope, impact, and steps; execute only after alignment.
- Upload action video or screenshots For UI state, paths, or repro steps, use Upload action video in attachments or key screenshots — clearer than text alone.
- Roll back, then small steps If a change breaks other features, do not keep patching blindly. Use Version history, restore a stable version, consult again, then execute in smaller scope.
- One issue at a time Name page, feature, and expected outcome; avoid “while you’re at it” scope creep.
Session issues after topping up Compute Credits
Session oddities after top-up? Check logs → Troubleshoot → retest. Steps:- Logs: Check system logs for post–top-up errors
- Troubleshoot: Use Troubleshoot in superun for abnormal state
- Retest: Verify the session continues normally
- Check account status before top-up
- Allow a few seconds for balance sync after top-up
