AI Coding Agent Tools & Troubleshooting Hub
Use working browser tools, exact-error guides and primary-source update tracking for Codex, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Antigravity, MCP, browser agents and AI-generated applications.

A repeatable coding-agent diagnostic workflow
- Capture exact evidence. Preserve the full error, command, agent version, operating system, working directory and timestamp. Remove tokens and private data before sharing.
- Classify the boundary. Decide whether the failure is local process startup, filesystem permission, authentication, MCP transport, provider quota, browser session or generated application behavior.
- Check the product owner. Verify current installation and platform support in official documentation. A six-month-old command may now be wrong.
- Reduce to one failing action. Disable unrelated MCP servers, plugins and custom instructions; reproduce using one repository and the smallest required permission.
- Inspect permission and identity separately. A successful login does not prove that a process token, OAuth scope, repository policy or filesystem ACL authorizes the attempted action.
- Verify the fix. Repeat the original action, record the changed variable and add a rollback. Do not call a workaround a root-cause fix without evidence.
High-intent troubleshooting paths
Codex on Windows
Process identity and ACL errors need different fixes.
Claude Code
Separate provider capacity, authentication and local configuration.
MCP and OAuth
Verify the server record and configuration first, then trace process environment, throttling and token lifecycle independently.
ComfyUI and Vite builds
Route high-demand GPU and import failures using the first causal line and a measurable verification gate.
Official product-update watch
OpenAI · June 2, 2026Codex plugins, annotations and Sites
OpenAI's current direction expands Codex beyond code into role-specific plugins, in-place annotations and shareable sites. Build help pages around concrete workflows and permission problems, not speculative feature lists.

GitHub · July 8, 2026Agent browser, sessions and MCP OAuth
GitHub documents agentic browser tools, session sync, larger context support and preregistered MCP OAuth credentials in current VS Code releases.

Google · May 19, 2026Gemini CLI to Antigravity CLI migration
Google announced the consumer transition to Antigravity CLI and a June 18 service cutoff for affected Gemini CLI and Code Assist access. Troubleshooting should confirm which CLI is actually supported first.

Cloudflare · July 22, 2026MCP exposure controls and Code Mode runtime
Cloudflare's Agents SDK update reduces repeated schema conversion, adds MCP exposure controls and exposes direct Code Mode runtime methods. This creates durable demand for schema-budget and approval-boundary diagnostics.

Individually reviewed workflow guides
Only guides with a concrete workflow, current source check and prior search demand are promoted here. The bulk blog archive remains excluded from search during quality recovery.
EasyTool publishing rule: a new agent page must contain a working tool, a reproducible error, a tested workflow or primary-source analysis. A product announcement by itself is not enough.
Security boundaries for agent-operated tools
- Give agents the minimum repository, filesystem, network and account access needed for the current task.
- Keep credentials out of prompts, logs, screenshots, URLs and downloaded diagnostic reports.
- Treat generated commands as proposals until scope and targets are reviewed.
- Require explicit review for destructive actions, permission changes, deployments and messages to third parties.
- Verify generated applications for authentication, authorization, input validation, secret handling, dependency risk, monitoring and rollback.
