  • Comprehensive Checks: Handles graceful shutdown, rebuilds with the correct development compose overlay, performs health checks, verifies compilation logs for errors, and checks database seed data.
  • Troubleshooting: Identifies common issues like compilation errors or unhealthy services, providing actionable next steps.
  • Use Case: Before running E2E tests, use this Skill to guarantee a clean, healthy, and correctly compiled local development environment, preventing "Element not found" errors due to stale containers.
