<critical_constraints> ❌ NO <a href=""> → use <Link> to prevent full page reload ❌ NO destructuring props → loses reactivity, use toRefs(props) or props.name ❌ NO forgetting .value → count.value++ not count++ ✅ MUST trace upstream to Laravel Controller for missing props ✅ MUST run php artisan optimize:clear after route changes </critical_constraints>

<silent_reload_fix> Symptom: Full page refresh (white flash) on link click Cause: Used <a> tag instead of Inertia Link Fix: <Link href="/users"> instead of <a href="/users"> </silent_reload_fix>

<prop_tunnel_debug>

1. Vue DevTools → inspect Inertia root component props
2. Check Laravel Controller → is data passed in Inertia::render()?
3. Check HandleInertiaRequests middleware for global data </prop_tunnel_debug>

<ziggy_routing> Error: 'users.show' is not in the route list Fix 1: php artisan optimize:clear Fix 2: Check route in routes/web.php has ->name('users.show') Fix 3: Pass params: route('users.show', user.id) </ziggy_routing>

<form_debugging> Symptom: Submit → spinner → nothing happens (no error shown) Cause: 422 validation error, but UI not displaying it Fix: Add error binding <div v-if="form.errors.email">{{ form.errors.email }}</div> </form_debugging>

<reactivity_loss>

• Destructuring: const { name } = props → use props.name directly
• Ref value: count++ → count.value++ </reactivity_loss>

<console_noise> IGNORE: [Intervention] non-passive event listener (benign) ATTACK: Prop "user" expects Object, got Array → Laravel returned [] not {} </console_noise>
