Recce diff failed error "base environment manifest not found for comparison"

Point Recce at a base manifest that exists: the diff needs the base environment manifest for comparison, so generate or download the base dbt manifest and artifacts first, and configure Recce with that path before running the diff. Use when a Recce workflow reviewing dbt changes against a production or main branch bas…

when agent tried to backfill dbt snapshots agent triggered downstream test failure error

Snapshot backfills are model changes, not free reruns: backfilling dbt snapshots rewrites history rows that downstream tests assert on, so backfill in a separate target first, diff the snapshot, and only then run it where downstream tests will judge it. Use when an agent workflow backfilling dbt snapshots after a sour…

agent failed to parse dbt run_results json after partial write error failed to read artifacts

Read the artifact defensively: run_results.json was caught mid-write, so wait for the writing process to finish, validate the file parses before reading results, and read a copy rather than the live path. Use when an agent workflow that reads dbt artifacts after a run, possibly while the run is still finishing. Not fo…

how to fix dbt error "database error: relation staging table does not exist" during test run

Create the staging relation before the test run, in the right schema: the test queried a staging table that the run never built, usually because the test ran standalone, the model was deselected, or the schema macro resolves differently under the test target. Use when a dbt project running tests against a target where…

agent produced overlapping dashboard layout coordinates: Looker tiles collided after agent added new elements

Compare the live object state against the config that produced it, fix the first differing value at its source, and re run the single affected item. Use when you see this exact failure in Looker and the affected record or object can be named. Not for a different Looker error with another message, or for general setup …

dbt run error: test failed in manifest with schema change detected error

Read the manifest diff before rebuilding: a schema change detected error means the built model's columns no longer match what the manifest or contract recorded, so compare the model SQL's output columns with the recorded schema, then either restore the dropped or renamed column or update the contract and downstream re…

agent couldn't parse dbt manifest json error failed to read artifacts

Parse dbt artefacts with a tolerant, version-aware reader: read the manifest's schema version first, access node fields defensively since dbt adds and renames fields between versions, and never assume the artefact's top-level layout matches the last dbt release. Use when an agent failing to read the dbt manifest JSON …
