Claud e Code (Claude Pro - sonnet 4.0) – Unusable Deployment Output After 6 Weeks of Development - next.js + ghost cms

Resolved 💬 3 comments Opened Aug 7, 2025 by kxplorer Closed Jan 6, 2026

After 6 weeks of work using the Claude Pro plan, my generated app is faulty, non-functional, and riddled with deployment issues. The debugging assistance is poor, and the tool continuously defaults to fallback behavior.

Issue Details:
• ❌ App fails to work even after final output is marked “complete”
• 🔁 Claude frequently switches to fallbacks, even when no errors are present
• 🚫 API routing doesn’t function correctly – it loops incorrectly or gets stuck in undefined states
• 🐳 Claude fails to understand or generate reliable Docker configurations
• 🌐 NGINX configuration breaks upon any change – Claude-generated changes introduce new bugs every time
• 🧠 Debug explanations are vague, repetitive, or misaligned with actual issues

Expected Behavior:
• Claude should be able to maintain consistent logic in routing, properly interpret Dockerfile and NGINX changes, and provide meaningful debug steps to fix broken deployments.

Actual Behavior:
• API fails silently or routes to fallback.
• Debugging advice is superficial.
• Every infrastructure suggestion causes more issues than it solves.

Impact:
• Wasted 6 weeks on a project that cannot launch.
• Pro Plan expectations unmet.
• Loss of time, credibility, and platform trust.

Request:
Please review Claude’s code generation logic for:
• Dockerfile setup
• NGINX reverse proxy behavior
• API endpoint consistency
• State management during fallback handling
