FAQPage Schema
How do I start a live Astro site preview during development?▼

To start a live Astro site preview, the system automatically selects the best available pathway—Claude Desktop MCP, magnus-helper on Cowork, or a Bash fallback—to launch the dev-server and enable real-time validation of changes without manual setup.

How does live preview navigation work for specific routes?▼

Live preview navigation works by directing the active dev-server instance to a specific route or refreshing the preview pane to instantly reflect edits, keeping the site view in sync with code changes across multiple contexts.

Can I preview my Astro site if the in-app preview pane is missing?▼

Yes, you can preview your Astro site if the in-app pane is missing. The system will automatically open the live site in your default browser as a failover, ensuring you can still validate changes.

What is the best way to stop or restart an Astro dev-server preview?▼

The best way to stop or restart an Astro dev-server preview is to request a clean stop or restart, which ensures a predictable development loop by cleanly terminating the active live preview pathway.

Do I need any external dependencies to run a live site preview?▼

No, you do not need external dependencies to run a live site preview. It requires only the plugin's built-in tooling and provides deterministic behavior with clear failovers and user prompts when setup is missing.
