Correctness & Error Handling Fix Find and fix correctness issues and missing error handling in $ARGUMENTS (or the whole app if no argument is given). Work through every step below. Each step searches for problems and then fixes them in place . Only report issues that cannot be auto-fixed. Step 1 — Map data flows and fix known defects Read these files before checking anything: src/main.tsx / src/App.tsx — top-level error boundaries and auth flow All files matching /hooks/*.ts , /contexts/.tsx — shared async state All files matching /api/.ts , */services/.ts — CDF SDK call sites For each async data source, note: What happens when the request fails (network error, CDF 403, timeout)? What does the UI show while loading? What does the UI show if the result is empty? Find and fix known defects in critical paths
Find TODO/FIXME/HACK in critical code paths (not test files)
grep -rn --include = ".ts" --include = ".tsx" -E "(TODO|FIXME|HACK|XXX):" src/ | grep -v ".test." | grep -v ".spec."
Find "fix" or "broken" or "workaround" markers
- grep
- -rn
- --include
- =
- "*.ts"
- --include
- =
- "*.tsx"
- -i
- -E
- "(TODO.*fix|workaround|broken|known.?bug|temporary.?hack)"
- src/
- For each match in a critical path (data fetching, rendering, auth, navigation):
- Read the surrounding code
- to understand the incomplete/broken behavior.
- Fix the underlying issue
- — implement the missing logic, correct the broken behavior, or add proper error handling.
- If the fix requires significant architectural changes beyond this skill's scope,
- replace the TODO with a safe failure mode
- graceful error handling, a sensible fallback value, or an explicit user-facing message explaining degraded functionality.
Remove the TODO/FIXME/HACK comment
after fixing. The code should speak for itself.
Do not leave TODOs in critical paths. Every one must be resolved or converted to a safe fallback.
Step 2 — Add top-level error boundary
Every Dune app must have at least one React Error Boundary wrapping the main content so that an unexpected render-time exception shows a user-friendly message instead of a blank screen.
grep
-rn
--include
=
".tsx"
--include
=
".ts"
-E
"ErrorBoundary|componentDidCatch|getDerivedStateFromError"
src/
If no error boundary exists,
create the ErrorFallback component and add the ErrorBoundary wrapper
to
App.tsx
. Install
react-error-boundary
if not present:
pnpm
add
react-error-boundary
Then add to
App.tsx
:
import
{
ErrorBoundary
}
from
"react-error-boundary"
;
function
ErrorFallback
(
{
error
}
:
{
error
:
Error
}
)
{
return
(
<
div
role
=
"
alert
"
className
=
"
p-8 text-center
"
< p className = " text-lg font-semibold "
Something went wrong </ p
< pre className = " mt-2 text-sm text-muted-foreground "
{ error . message } </ pre
</ div
) ; } // Wrap the main content: < ErrorBoundary FallbackComponent = { ErrorFallback }
< MainContent /> </ ErrorBoundary
Write the updated App.tsx with the ErrorBoundary in place. Do not just suggest it — make the edit. Step 3 — Wrap unhandled async functions in try/catch Search for every async function and Promise chain that does not have error handling:
Find async functions
grep -rn --include = ".ts" --include = ".tsx" -E "async\s+function|async\s+(" src/
Find .then() without .catch()
grep -rn --include = ".ts" --include = ".tsx" -E ".then(" src/ | grep -v ".catch(" Fix each one: For bare async functions that lack try/catch: wrap the function body in try/catch. Log the error with context and re-throw so callers/query layers can handle it: async function fetchAssets ( sdk : CogniteClient ) { try { const result = await sdk . assets . list ( { limit : 100 } ) ; return result . items ; } catch ( error ) { console . error ( "Failed to fetch assets:" , error ) ; throw error ; } } For .then() without .catch() : add .catch() to the chain: somePromise . then ( handleResult ) . catch ( ( error ) => { console . error ( "Operation failed:" , error ) ; } ) ; For TanStack Query consumers ( useQuery / useMutation ) missing isError handling: add the error check and error UI to the component: const { data , isLoading , isError , error } = useQuery ( { queryKey : [ "assets" ] , queryFn : ( ) => fetchAssets ( sdk ) , } ) ; if ( isError ) return < ErrorMessage error = { error } /> ; Read each file, make the edit, and write it back. Step 4 — Add missing loading, error, and empty states to components For each component that fetches data, it must have three distinct UI states: State Required UI Loading Spinner, skeleton, or loading indicator Error User-readable message (not a raw error object or blank space) Empty "No results" / "Nothing here yet" message (not a blank list) Search for components that render data without checking loading state: grep -rn --include = "*.tsx" -E ".(map|filter|find)(" src/ | grep -v "isLoading|isPending|skeleton|Skeleton" For each hit, read the component and add the missing states directly : Missing loading state — add before the data render: if ( isLoading ) { return < div className = " flex items-center justify-center p-8 "
</ div ; } Missing error state — add after the loading check: if ( isError ) { return ( < div role = " alert " className = " p-4 text-center text-destructive "
< p
Failed to load data. Please try again. </ p
</ div
) ; } Missing empty state — add after the error check, before the .map() : if ( ! data || data . length === 0 ) { return ( < div className = " p-8 text-center text-muted-foreground "
< p
No results found. </ p
</ div
) ; } Insert these checks in the correct order (loading, then error, then empty) above the existing data render. Write each fixed file. Step 5 — Add type narrowing for external data External data (CDF responses, URL params, localStorage , JSON.parse ) must be validated before use. TypeScript types alone are not runtime guarantees.
Find JSON.parse without validation
grep -rn --include = ".ts" --include = ".tsx" -E "JSON.parse(" src/
Find localStorage reads
grep -rn --include = ".ts" --include = ".tsx" -E "localStorage.(get|set)Item" src/
Find useSearchParams usage
- grep
- -rn
- --include
- =
- "*.ts"
- --include
- =
- "*.tsx"
- -E
- "useSearchParams|searchParams.get"
- src/
- Fix each one:
- JSON.parse(x) as T
- — replace with Zod safeParse:
- import
- {
- z
- }
- from
- "zod"
- ;
- const
- MySchema
- =
- z
- .
- object
- (
- {
- / fields /
- }
- )
- ;
- const
- parseResult
- =
- MySchema
- .
- safeParse
- (
- JSON
- .
- parse
- (
- raw
- )
- )
- ;
- if
- (
- !
- parseResult
- .
- success
- )
- {
- console
- .
- warn
- (
- "Invalid stored data, using defaults:"
- ,
- parseResult
- .
- error
- )
- ;
- return
- defaultValue
- ;
- }
- const
- validated
- =
- parseResult
- .
- data
- ;
- searchParams.get("id")
- without null check — add nullish fallback:
- const
- id
- =
- searchParams
- .
- get
- (
- "id"
- )
- ??
- defaultId
- ;
- localStorage.getItem(key)
- used directly — add type guard and fallback:
- const
- raw
- =
- localStorage
- .
- getItem
- (
- key
- )
- ;
- if
- (
- raw
- ===
- null
- )
- return
- defaultValue
- ;
- try
- {
- const
- parsed
- =
- JSON
- .
- parse
- (
- raw
- )
- ;
- // validate parsed shape
- return
- isValidShape
- (
- parsed
- )
- ?
- parsed
- :
- defaultValue
- ;
- }
- catch
- {
- return
- defaultValue
- ;
- }
- Do not cast external data with
- as MyType
- — that bypasses runtime safety. Read, fix, and write each file.
- Step 6 — Fix null, undefined, and unsafe array access
- Read every component that accesses properties of data returned from CDF or passed via props.
- grep
- -rn
- --include
- =
- "*.tsx"
- --include
- =
- "*.ts"
- -E
- "\w+[0]."
- src/
- Fix each unsafe pattern found:
- Unsafe nested property access
- — add optional chaining and nullish coalescing:
- // Before: asset.properties.space.Asset.name
- // After:
- const
- name
- =
- asset
- .
- properties
- ?.
- [
- "my-space"
- ]
- ?.
- [
- "Asset"
- ]
- ?.
- name
- ??
- "Unknown"
- ;
- Unguarded
- .map()
- on possibly-undefined array
- — add nullish fallback:
- // Before: items.map(renderItem)
- // After:
- (
- items
- ??
- [
- ]
- )
- .
- map
- (
- renderItem
- )
- Unsafe array index access
- — use
- .at()
- with optional chaining:
- // Before: items[0].name
- // After:
- const
- first
- =
- items
- .
- at
- (
- 0
- )
- ?.
- name
- ??
- "—"
- ;
- Read each file with a match, apply the fix, and write it back.
- Step 7 — Add useEffect cleanup functions
- Every
- useEffect
- that sets up a subscription, timer, event listener, or async operation that can outlive the component must return a cleanup function.
- grep
- -rn
- --include
- =
- "*.tsx"
- --include
- =
- "*.ts"
- -B
- 2
- -A
- 15
- "useEffect"
- src/
- For each
- useEffect
- , check whether cleanup is needed and
- add the cleanup function
- if missing:
- Pattern
- Fix to add
- addEventListener
- Add
- return () => removeEventListener(...)
- setInterval
- /
- setTimeout
- Add
- return () => clearInterval(id)
- /
- clearTimeout(id)
- CDF streaming / SSE
- Add
- return () => stream.close()
- fetch
- / CDF SDK call
- Add AbortController:
- const controller = new AbortController()
- at the top, pass
- controller.signal
- to fetch, add
- return () => controller.abort()
- , and guard state updates with
- if (!controller.signal.aborted)
- Zustand / event emitter subscription
- Add
- return () => unsubscribe()
- Reference pattern for async effects:
- useEffect
- (
- (
- )
- =>
- {
- const
- controller
- =
- new
- AbortController
- (
- )
- ;
- async
- function
- load
- (
- )
- {
- try
- {
- const
- data
- =
- await
- fetchWithSignal
- (
- controller
- .
- signal
- )
- ;
- if
- (
- !
- controller
- .
- signal
- .
- aborted
- )
- setState
- (
- data
- )
- ;
- }
- catch
- (
- err
- )
- {
- if
- (
- err
- instanceof
- Error
- &&
- err
- .
- name
- !==
- "AbortError"
- )
- {
- setError
- (
- err
- )
- ;
- }
- }
- }
- load
- (
- )
- ;
- return
- (
- )
- =>
- controller
- .
- abort
- (
- )
- ;
- }
- ,
- [
- id
- ]
- )
- ;
- Read each effect, add the missing cleanup, and write the file.
- Step 8 — Add edge case guards
- For each feature, check and
- add guards
- for:
- Empty data
-
- If zero-item lists are not handled, add an empty state check before rendering.
- Single item
-
- If list rendering has off-by-one bugs with a single entry, fix the logic.
- Maximum data / pagination
-
- If CDF returns the full
- limit
- and there are more pages, ensure pagination is communicated to the user. Add a "Load more" or pagination indicator if missing.
- Concurrent requests / stale results
-
- If the user can trigger a new request before the previous completes, add stale request cancellation (AbortController or a request ID check).
- Network offline
- If the app silently fails when offline, add a meaningful error message. For Atlas tool execute functions, add argument validation at the top of every execute function: execute : async ( args ) => { if ( ! args . assetId || typeof args . assetId !== "string" ) { return { output : "Missing or invalid assetId" , details : null } ; } // ... safe to proceed } Search for execute functions, read each one, add the validation, and write the file. Step 9 — Report remaining findings Produce a structured report covering: What was fixed in each step — summarize the changes made (files edited, patterns fixed). Remaining issues — only list issues that could not be auto-fixed (e.g., require architectural changes, need product decisions, or are outside the scope of this skill). Severity File Line Issue Status HIGH src/hooks/useAssets.ts 34 Unhandled promise rejection FIXED — wrapped in try/catch MEDIUM src/components/AssetList.tsx 12 No empty state FIXED — added empty state check MEDIUM src/auth/flow.ts 45 Auth error handling needs product decision UNFIXED — requires team input If no issues are found in a step, state "No issues found" for that step. Do not skip steps silently. Done Summarize what was fixed by severity. Flag any remaining HIGH issues that could cause data loss, crashes in production, or misleading UI states, and list them first for immediate attention.
