Failed to check contribution status

Error message

Failed to check contribution status

What it means

Catch-all at the end of getContributionState: any exception thrown by the four parallel Supabase queries or the status-derivation logic is console.logged and re-thrown as this generic Error, discarding the original cause. The real reason (RLS denial, network failure, malformed data) is only visible in the preceding console.log.

Solutions

1. Check the console output for 'Error checking contribution status:' — the underlying error is printed there and names the real cause
2. If the cause is a JWT/auth error, refresh the session (supabase.auth.refreshSession) or re-login
3. Verify RLS policies grant the authenticated role SELECT on the queried tables for the user's auth.uid()
4. Attach the original error via { cause } (or rethrow it) so callers and logs keep the stack

Example fix

// before
} catch (error) {
  console.log("Error checking contribution status:", error)
  throw new Error("Failed to check contribution status")
}

// after
} catch (error) {
  console.error("Error checking contribution status:", error)
  throw new Error("Failed to check contribution status", { cause: error })
}

try {
  const state = await getContributionState()
} catch (e) {
  if (e instanceof Error && e.message === "Failed to check contribution status") {
    // the real cause was console.logged; check devtools, then:
    await supabase.auth.refreshSession() // if JWT expiry is the cause
    return retryOnce()
  }
  throw e
}

When it happens

Trigger: Row Level Security denying SELECT on contributor/contribution tables to the current auth.uid(); network or Supabase outage during the Promise.all; unexpected null/shape in query results breaking the status computation.

Common situations: RLS policies not covering a new table or role; expired/invalid JWT mid-session; schema changes after a ceremony migration.
