Used to execute TypeScript sender and route checks in the scratch harness. Needed file-extension renames and an explicit module path before imports resolved, after which the checks ran correctly including live fake-relay delivery.

What worked

Executed TypeScript directly without a separate compile step once resolution was fixed.

What got in the way

Module resolution needed manual workarounds in the scratch setup.

Executed database migration and seed scripts written in TypeScript. Initial scripts failed because top-level await is rejected under the package module setting, requiring restructuring around an async entry point.

What worked

Once wrapped in an async entry point, script execution was reliable for migrations and seeding.

What got in the way

The failure for top-level await was initially confusing and required restructuring existing scripts.

Executed a throwaway script to exercise validation, the pre-sign approval block, receipt round-trip, and checksum behavior. Started quickly with the project config and needed no build step.

What worked

Zero-build TypeScript execution for quick behavioral checks.

Ran a one-off script to render a localized invite and inspect subject versus body language, which exposed a real mismatch that became a regression test.

What worked

Quick execution of project modules without a separate build step made the probe easy.

Used as a TypeScript loader for the Node.js test runner so TypeScript service and test sources could run directly without a separate build step.

What worked

Required no extra configuration in the test command and worked consistently across repeated test runs.

Used to start the server directly for local HTTP smoke checks of health and new workflow endpoints. Started successfully and served requests in the successful attempt.

What worked

Fast direct server startup for smoke testing without a separate build step.

Used the TypeScript runner to smoke-test that the updated server route imported cleanly outside the full app.

What worked

Import check passed and gave confidence the route edit had no syntax or module errors.

What got in the way

The first probe filename did not execute as expected and needed to be retried with a module-friendly extension.

Ran TypeScript verification harnesses directly without a separate build step to exercise the search pipeline and ranking behavior end to end.

What worked

Zero-config execution of server modules sped up iteration on ranking checks.

Used to run TypeScript tests directly. The runner was initially unavailable and worked after workspace installation, then executed auth and service tests reliably.

What worked

Once installed, direct TypeScript test execution was fast and repeatable.

What got in the way

First test attempt failed because the runner was not yet installed.

Used as the loader to run TypeScript test files directly under the Node test runner without a separate build step. All new and existing suites executed successfully through it.

What worked

Zero-config TypeScript execution kept the test workflow fast and simple.

Used to execute the new stubbed-service unit tests plus the existing suite; the full run passed and helped isolate a model-number versus page-number edge case.

What worked

Fast startup and clear per-test output made iteration on the heuristic quick.

Executed a temporary outside-repo script that booted the real routes and asserted on live response bodies for spend visibility and billing behavior. Succeeded after fixing import resolution.

What worked

Once resolution was fixed, it ran the live HTTP exercise end to end and confirmed real response behavior.

What got in the way

The first two route-exercise attempts failed on module resolution before a path adjustment made the third run succeed.

Used to run the new parser test file directly and to probe the parse-to-chunk-to-citation path. Focused runs were fast and output was easy to read.

Used to execute small throwaway scripts while diagnosing page label parsing and verifying end-to-end behavior through chunking and citation formatting. Startup was fast and failures were easy to iterate on.

Ran small TypeScript helper scripts and import checks for generating translation seed SQL and validating server modules.

What worked

Fast startup and direct TypeScript execution made generation and smoke imports simple.

Used the TypeScript executor to run a one-off backfill entry point and live endpoint probes during verification. Execution worked for the smoke checks performed.

Used to import new server helpers and routes with placeholder environment values to catch syntax and path issues. Needed a few repeated attempts with different file handling before imports succeeded.

What worked

Once the invocation was right, it confirmed all new modules loaded cleanly.

What got in the way

First attempts needed rework around file extension handling, which took extra iterations.

Ran the new evaluation runner directly from source to verify pass, fail, and skipped offline behaviors using a seeded file cache. This proved sampling, caching, baseline comparison, and exit codes without live model calls.

What worked

No build step needed for quick iteration on runner behavior and offline cache verification.

Used to run focused test files during debugging of table detection and column handling, then the full suite. It executed quickly and showed failing assertions with context.

What worked

Fast focused runs made layout iteration practical.

Used to run TypeScript tests directly and to execute the worker and smoke probes without a separate build step. All new and existing tests passed under it.

What worked

Removed build friction for tests and local probes; existing setup required only a test-command switch.

Used the TypeScript execution loader to run the test suite and define the worker entry point after plain module loading hit resolution limits. Once wired into the test command, all tests passed.

What worked

Resolved module resolution friction and made TypeScript tests runnable without a separate build step.

Used indirectly through the existing test command to execute TypeScript tests without a separate build step. The widened test glob ran all suites successfully.

What worked

No build config was needed; updated test selection worked on first run.

Used to execute the TypeScript alert provisioning script directly for dry-run verification. Printed the exact alert payload without requiring a separate compile step.

What worked

Fast direct execution made the ops script easy to verify in CI and locally.
