How this lab works

You diagnose it. No command list.

Open the repair workspace and gather your own evidence in a real terminal. No diagnostic commands are handed to you - finding the fault is the exercise. Stuck? Progressive hints unlock inside the workspace.

Verification

Pass more than the visible symptom.

4 checks

  • Robot still reaches the goal (does not stall far short)
  • Hidden regression behavior
  • Root cause explanation
