Molt

doctor & unblock

Preflight your own environment, and clear a heal that is blocking new work.

molt doctor

Shell
molt doctor

Checks the things that fail in ways that look like a Molt bug but are not: a wrong Node version, an unreachable database, an unresolvable Bright Data CLI, no credential in the environment, no collectors registered — and then reuses the exact same preflight molt add runs against every already-registered target, to catch drift since it was onboarded (a target that stopped resolving, started disallowing robots, or grew past the size ceiling).

Text
Doctor
  ✓  Node.js version           v22.11.0
  ✓  Database                  reachable
  ✓  Bright Data CLI           node_modules/@brightdata/cli/dist/index.js
  ⚠  Bright Data credential    not set in env — fine if `bdata login` has already run
  ✓  Collectors registered     2 registered
 
  Targets
  ✓  chaos    https://molt-chaos.vercel.app
  ✓  primary  https://www.postgresql.org/support/security/

A missing credential is a warning, not a failure — bdata login can store it outside the process environment, somewhere this check has no visibility into either way.

molt unblock

Shell
molt unblock [primary|chaos|c_*]

Scraper Studio allows one refactor job per collector at a time. A heal left sitting at awaiting_approval holds that slot, so every subsequent heal on the same collector gets refused with a 409 until someone decides. unblock is that decision made for you: it rejects whatever heal is currently pending.

Warning

This discards any fix you were part-way through reviewing. Read Heal & review first if there is a pending heal you have not actually looked at yet — unblock is for a stuck heal you have already decided against, not a shortcut past the review step.
