server-secrets-strategy.md described only two credential mechanisms — bootstrap
ServerSecrets and vault-only optional integrations — and stated its most
restrictive rule in terms of "server runtime", which is ambiguous now that every
run is a server process plus a worker. It omitted the third mechanism actually
used by operator-configured integrations: settings-declared credentials in
InterpString fields, resolved at consumption time from {{ env.NAME }} or
{{ secrets.NAME }}, as LLM provider extra_headers already does.
Add a "Which process resolves what" table keyed on resolving process and timing,
a "Settings-declared credentials" section with the extra_headers precedent, and a
mechanism table at the head of "Adding A New Server Secret". Replace "server
runtime" with per-process statements, and describe where CredentialResolver's
process-env fallback is actually live.
Also correct six docs that told operators to export provider keys for "standalone
local runs". There is no CLI-local run execution: runs always execute in a worker
whose environment is cleared and repopulated from WORKER_ENV_ALLOWLIST, which
excludes provider API keys. Those instructions could not have worked.

## `fabro doctor`
|
|
|
|
The `fabro doctor` command validates your installation:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
fabro doctor # Local config checks + live server diagnostics
|
|
fabro doctor --verbose # Show detailed output for each check
|
|
fabro doctor --server https://fabro.example.com/api/v1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
It checks:
|
|
|
|
- Local user config and storage directory health
|
|
- Server-reported LLM provider connectivity, with configured providers probed concurrently
|
|
- GitHub App, sandbox, and Brave Search credentials, plus Docker daemon reachability when the Docker sandbox provider is enabled
|
|
- Server authentication and crypto configuration
|
|
|
|
LLM provider probe failures are reported as errors. Use `--verbose` to see the underlying provider error chain when a key, network route, or model endpoint fails.

## Common issues
|
|
|
|
**Install wizard didn't open in my browser** — `fabro server start` prints the install URL to stderr before attempting to open it. Copy that URL into your browser manually. Auto-open fails on headless Linux hosts, inside most containers, and over SSH sessions without a display.
|
|
|
|
**Server exited after I finished the install wizard** — Expected. The server writes `~/.fabro/settings.toml` and exits cleanly at the end of the wizard. Start it again with `fabro server start` to boot in configured mode, or run it under a supervisor with a restart policy (for example docker-compose `restart: unless-stopped`, systemd, or Railway's restart-on-exit) so the second start happens automatically.
|
|
|
|
**"No API key configured"** — For runs, set at least one provider key in the server vault with `fabro provider login` or `fabro secret set`; workers start from a cleared environment, so exporting a provider key in the server's shell has no effect on runs. `fabro exec` and direct library usage can use env-backed credential sources explicitly. Run `fabro doctor` to verify server connectivity.
|
|
|
|
**Stall watchdog timeouts** — If runs are cancelled unexpectedly, the agent may be stuck or the LLM provider may be slow. Check `FABRO_LOG=debug` output for `Agent.LlmRetry` events. Increase `stall_timeout` in the graph if needed, or add [fallback providers](/core-concepts/models) to handle outages.
|
|
|
|
**Sandbox creation failures** — For Docker: run `fabro doctor`; when Docker is enabled, it pings the daemon and reports whether to start Docker, fix socket permissions, or disable the provider. Also ensure the configured image exists. For Daytona: verify `DAYTONA_API_KEY` is stored in the server vault, includes `write:snapshots`, `delete:snapshots`, `write:sandboxes`, and `delete:sandboxes`, and that GitHub access is configured. For Exe: verify your SSH keys are configured for `exe.dev` and that `ssh exe.dev` connects successfully.
|
|
|
|
**Port already in use** — Change the port with `fabro server start --port 3001` or stop the conflicting process.
|
|
|
|
**SSE streams disconnecting** — If using a reverse proxy, ensure buffering is disabled and the connection timeout is long enough for workflow runs.
|
|
|
|
**Run config validation errors** — Use `fabro preflight` to validate without executing:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
fabro preflight run.toml
|
|
```
