The node has no name

Give the logger node a valid name so discovery and remapping work.

Pairs with Nodes and the computation graph in Learn ROS 2 from the basics. Read the concept first, then diagnose it here.

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.
