So...I myself am a product manager and a power user of AI tools. I was creating prototype applications which could handle decent traffic and work without any issues when built in a proper systematic process. Earlier i used to take workshops for working professionals which did go really well.

Recently Ive been thinking about conducting workshops for kids to see how they use ai tools and translate their ideas. I started within friends and familym Honestly even I enjoyed the process and what impressed me was that - if we properly instruct and give feedback to kids, they are prompting really well, they are not hesitant to try new things out. The kids started building games like chess, and penalty kicker sort of games.

Now they are thinking to build multi player battle ship, Pokemon sort of games which involves work building, character mapping.

If any one is interested to do such workshops along let's collaborate. In case if you live in a gated community where we can get 5-10 kids, it'll be really amazing.

I imported a project from GitHub directly but bolt deletes files(images) from public directory in it's own. Used to work flawlessly earlier..

Had an issue with domain verification, and the AI support bot said it was a platform issue and that they'd connect me with a human. Then silence. I've tried to "check in" a couple times, and nothing, so here we are. I've seen the Bolt rep here a couple of times, so hoping I can get their attention, although it's pretty frustrating that this is what it takes. Can they really not assign ticket numbers or give any kind of ETA/acknowledgement? Great too, poor customer service experience.

UPDATE - HEARD BACK FROM SUPPORT, ISSUE RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS: My main site (root domain) was published from Bolt to Netlify, and fixed the issue by also pushing the new subdomain site to Netlify, then configuring the domain there and it all worked fine.

------

PROBLEM:

I published my project and added a custom domain (or subdomain, rather).

Platform asked me to enter a txt record in my DNS, which I did, then I clicked the "verify" button.

It failed, which wasn't surprising due to propagation time, so I decided to check back later. I jumped back to my project screen to work a bit.

Few minutes later and I decided to go back to the domains page and click verify again to check, but to my surprise it made me start over by clicking "add custom domain", and then I had to enter the (sub)domain again. I entered the same domain, but this time it said it was already in use on a Bolt project (which of course was this project) and so I could not proceed due to it being "already in use".

So now I can't get to the verification screen to click the "verify" button and finish setting that up, nor can I clear it and start over.

I don't remember WHY I did this, but I disconnected my GitHub repo from my project and I think that was very bad. I'm stuck.

1. I can't reconnect it to the existing Bolt project. I can only create a new repo.

2. For some reason, my bolt project that displays is actually a different UI for another bolt project. Huh? This might be a fluke so we can come back to this one later.

3. Is my only option to create a new bolt project and use "Import from Github"? If so, it says it can't because the repository is too large!

Help!

Error

We failed to communicate with the agent. Please try again.

I'm having this error since 2 hours ago.

Is the service down? The status page seems to be ok.

My tokens are not going as far as they used to. I used 50 million tokens in 3 days and before doing similar project that would last me 3 weeks at least. I think they changed something and now its almost not worth using.

My projects get fairly large. I'm burning through tokens like a teenager with their first credit card. I know I should use a bolt ignore file, but how do y'all know what to put in that file? How am I supposed to know what files/folders won't be needed if I ask for a new feature or a tweak to an existing one?

We’ve all been there: Your auth and DB work perfectly. You ask Bolt for a simple layout change, and it suddenly wipes out your database schema or spins in a circle trying to fix the same console error over and over.

Boom - 10 million credits gone in an hour.

This isn't a bad prompt issue. It's Context Poisoning. Feeding error logs back into the browser chat anchors the AI's attention onto its own failure path, completely destroying its debugging efficiency.

Local terminal hacks don't work inside cloud sandboxes. So, I built a zero-config, cloud-native circuit breaker.

It connects via a GitHub webhook. When Bolt loops out, you drop the error into a web dashboard. It strips the noise, generates an immutable negative constraint file, and silently commits it to your repo. Bolt pulls the update on the next prompt and is structurally barred from repeating the mistake.

Testing it on complex loops tonight. What specific integration (Stripe, Supabase) is draining your credits right now?

Last year I built LLMVIZ.com - a tool that turns raw text into charts. Paste survey results, research papers, earning reports, whatever, and it spits out charts based on any data contained in the text. Flip between bar, area, line, pie, radar, etc. and copy to clipboard or download as a png.

I put up a landing page, opened a beta waitlist, then got pulled into other projects and didn't have enough time to dedicate to it.

It’s still pulling ~50 signups/month with nothing pushing it. No clue where they’re coming from. GA4 says 99% direct. ahrefs shows a few back links but nothing major.

Regardless, I felt bad enough about it that I finally cleaned things up and started rolling out access to beta signups.

It's free, with a limit of 3 runs per day (if you need more just DM me). Feedback welcome.

Bolt is having trouble completing tasks; it gets stuck on the final "thinking" stage. I've already tried disabling all my browser extensions and clearing my cache and history, but the problem persists. I still have plenty of tokens available; it just won't move forward. I even tried switching to a higher-consumption model, but that didn't help either.

I tried cloning the project, but nothing changed...

Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm a new user on bolt, gave it a prompt to build a site, there was a lot in the prompt, but it told me that I ran out of credits before it even finished completing the task. Is this normal? Will I need to pay for premium to complete the build?
