- [KNOWN FAILURE 1] — the usual fixes for this tool have not been written down yet. Add them the second time somebody hits one.
- Wrong error number or a fault you cannot name: run the tool's own diagnostic first (shelf row).
- Before any repair that writes to a store, take the export — backoff is the tool for it.
