Troubleshooting

MCP tools need a project ID

Set SQUADBOARD_DEFAULT_PROJECT_ID in the MCP config environment or pass projectId in the tool call.

The coordinator does not dispatch

Check:

  • COORDINATOR_DISPATCH_ENABLED
  • project agents are active
  • parent issues are not blocking
  • the issue is not too thin
  • routing log entries for deterministic skip or ambiguity

Ralph is idle

Ralph must be enabled for the project. If enabled, inspect the monitor status route and audit records to see the last decision and next candidate.

Worktree cleanup did not delete a branch

Cleanup is intentionally conservative. It only removes safe worktrees and safe squad/* branches when policy allows.
