[impeccable] failed to fetch pending count:

Error message

[impeccable] failed to fetch pending count:

What it means

The in-page live script failed to fetch the pending manual-edit count from the local live server (/manual-edit-stash). The fetch or JSON parse threw and the failure is only warned; the pending pill counter is simply not updated.

Solutions

1. Confirm the live server on the given PORT is running; restart the live session and reload the page.
2. Check that the token matches the current server session (reload the page to get a fresh TOKEN).
3. Open the URL manually in devtools network tab to see the actual status/response.
4. Ignore if transient: the counter refreshes on the next successful poll.

Example fix

// before
const res = await fetch(url); const data = await res.json();
// after (surface status before parsing)
const res = await fetch(url);
if (!res.ok) { console.warn('[impeccable] pending count HTTP', res.status); return; }
const data = await res.json();

async function serverUp(port) {
  try { const r = await fetch('http://localhost:' + port + '/healthz'); return r.ok; } catch { return false; }
}

try {
  const res = await fetch(url);
  if (!res.ok) throw new Error('HTTP ' + res.status);
  const data = await res.json();
  updatePendingCounter(data.count || 0);
} catch (err) {
  console.warn('[impeccable] failed to fetch pending count:', err);
}

When it happens

Trigger: The browser page calls http://localhost:<PORT>/manual-edit-stash?token=...&pageUrl=...; network error, non-OK response falling through, or res.json() throwing leads to the catch at skill/scripts/live-browser.js:4109.

Common situations: Live dev server was restarted or stopped while the page stayed open; wrong/changed TOKEN after a server restart; page URL path changed; localhost port conflict.
