What it can do

  • Lookup Error: Match an error message against deadends.dev's database of known errors. Returns dead ends (what NOT to try), workarounds (what works), and error chains (what comes next).
  • Get Error Detail: Get full details for a specific error by its ID (e.g., 'python/modulenotfounderror/py311-linux').
  • List Error Domains: List all error domains and counts in the deadends.dev database.

Do you need an account

No: the server works without sign-in

Error knowledge database for AI coding agents. 2002 verified error patterns across 43 domains. Returns dead ends (what NOT to try) and workarounds (what works) for any error message. Covers Python, Node, Docker, CUDA, Kubernetes, ROS 2, PyTorch, and 36 more domains.

Server tool list (8)

Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

lookup_errorMatch an error message against deadends.dev's database of known errors. Returns dead ends (what NOT to try), workarounds (what works), and error chains (what comes next).
get_error_detailGet full details for a specific error by its ID (e.g., 'python/modulenotfounderror/py311-linux').
list_error_domainsList all error domains and counts in the deadends.dev database.
search_errorsSearch errors by keyword across all domains. Uses fuzzy keyword search.
list_errors_by_domainList all errors in a specific domain with their fix rates.
batch_lookupLook up multiple error messages at once. Returns the best match for each error.
get_domain_statsGet detailed statistics for a domain: error counts, average fix rate, resolvability breakdown.
get_error_chainTraverse the error transition graph for a specific error. Shows leads_to, preceded_by, and frequently_confused_with.
