When your AI gets stuck or a deploy does not work
Building with AI is mostly smooth, but every so often something does not work. None of these mean you broke anything, and none of them need a developer to fix.
Published 2 July 2026
A deploy fails, the AI gets confused, or a connection does not take. Here are the moves that work, in the order to try them. The mindset first: snags are normal. If you are unlucky, you might hit a few along the way. You recover from them in a minute or two.
Your app went live, then something says it is not working
Sometimes the deploy looks successful, then a page says it is not working. The fix is to show your AI what you are seeing. You do not have to be a developer. Just take a screenshot and paste it into the chat, and tell it what happened.
Your AI reads the screenshot, finds the problem, and fixes it. Often one screenshot is all it takes. So: take a screenshot of whatever looks wrong, paste it into your chat, say what happened, and let it try again.
Your AI seems confused or is repeating itself
If you have been chatting for a long time, your AI can start to lose the thread. A long conversation uses more of your allowance, and it can get a little confused. Think of yourself with a lot of information to hold at once.
The fix is to start a new chat. A fresh conversation focuses only on the thing you say and what is needed for that job. You will not lose your work: as long as you are pointing at the same folder, your AI already knows what is there. Open a new chat, tell it what you want next, and keep going.
You just connected your AI to LIIVO and it is not responding
If you set up the connection and it does not seem to work right away, the fix is simple: restart your AI. Close it, open it again, and try your prompt once more.
There is one more thing that helps right after you connect. When you connect using a prompt, the final step is to start fresh: open a new chat, and then you are connected with LIIVO and ready to build. If your first build attempt does not pick up the connection, open a new chat before trying again.
Can you break something for good?
No. This is the most common worry and the answer is reassuring. Your work is saved as you go, and changes can be undone by simply asking your AI to undo them. You experiment, and if you do not like the result, you say so and it changes it back. You cannot permanently ruin your app by typing the wrong thing.
The short version
- App live but showing an error: screenshot it, paste it in your chat, say it is not working, let your AI fix it.
- AI confused or going in circles: open a new chat, it starts fresh and still knows your folder.
- Connection not responding: restart your AI, and open a new chat after connecting.
When in doubt, paste what you see back to your AI and ask. It is the fastest fix for almost everything.
