Troubleshooting
Common problems and fixes.
Forgot -t with --github
GitHub needs to know if it's an issue or a PR:
wtmag create --github 456 -t issue
wtmag create --github 456 -t prWindow launch fails outside tmux
Defaults open workers as tmux windows. You need to be inside tmux:
tmux new -s project-devOr force a dedicated session:
wtmag create --github 456 -t issue -sGitHub fetch fails
WTmag uses gh to get issue and PR context:
gh auth statusMake sure you're in the right repo and the number exists.
Agent won't start
WTmag launches whatever command is in your config. Check that it works on its own:
pi --help
opencode --help
claude --help
codex --helpFor custom agents, make sure command, args, and prompt_flag match the CLI's actual interface.
Model override fails
--model only works with Pi and OpenCode right now:
wtmag create --github 456 -t issue --agent opencode --model openai/gpt-5.2:highFor other agents, set the model in the agent's own config instead.
Jira doesn't work yet
The command parses:
wtmag create --jira PROJ-123But the adapter isn't built. Use GitHub issues or custom prompts for now.
Worker needs more space
Promote a window to its own session:
wtmag promote --id project-github-issue-456Then attach as usual.
