Find the root cause in Plan mode when blind fixes don't work

Asks Lovable to investigate the code and find the real problem before changing it

When to use it

You've tried fixing an error twice, but it keeps returning in new ways

Why it is worth it

Finds and fixes the actual cause instead of piling up patches that don't stick

Before you start

  1. Try to fix once or twice
  2. Describe what is broken clearly

The prompt

My task manager app's tasks aren't saving to the database. This was working last week, and I tried fixing it twice, first by adding error handling in the save function, then by checking the API connection. But tasks still fail to save, sometimes silently and sometimes with a validation error. What is the root cause of this bug? Show me the relevant code and explain what is going wrong and why before proposing a fix.

Swap the task manager app with your own app and the issue you're investigating
