To diagnose a Spring context startup failure, trace the bean creation path and constructor arguments to separate the symptom, like BeanCreationException, from the root cause. Identify the failing dependency category, whether missing or duplicate, to apply a minimal wiring fix.

A circular dependency in Spring occurs when beans require each other for construction. Fix the bean graph by tracing the dependency chain, classifying the failure category, and restructuring the wiring with the narrowest possible verifiable change to restore correct startup.

Spring auto-configuration behaves differently across active profiles due to conditional mismatches in bean creation. Trace the failing conditional path, collect evidence on why the container made its decision, and adjust the profile-specific configuration to restore correct wiring.

Yes, you can fix Kotlin Spring projects by identifying the failing bean and proposing the smallest correct wiring fix. It reconstructs the container's decision, documents the failure category, and applies a minimal testable change instead of a broad rewrite.

Trace an UnsatisfiedDependencyException by separating it from the root cause, such as a missing bean or factory method failure. Reconstruct the dependency chain, classify the failure category, and propose the narrowest verifiable fix to restore proper Spring wiring.
