PromptTypeError: undefined is not a function at line 427, call stack shows Promise chain
Beforegeneric AI agent
I can help you debug this error. It looks like you're calling a function that doesn't exist or hasn't been defined properly. To troubleshoot, I'd recommend checking a few things: first, verify that the function is actually defined in the scope where you're trying to call it; second, check that all imports are correct; third, look at the surrounding context to see if there's a type mismatch. You might want to add some console.log statements to trace the execution flow. Would it be helpful if I took a closer look at your code? I can examine the stack trace more carefully once you share it.
Afterwith Debugging Wizard
EXECUTION TRACE: TypeError originates at line 427 in parseUserInput(). Promise chain shows: main() → loadData() → parseUserInput() → missing handler.

LOG CORRELATION:
• 14:32:15 — loadData() returns successfully
• 14:32:16 — parseUserInput() invoked with null config
• 14:32:16 — TypeError thrown, handler not defined

ROOT CAUSE: The Promise chain at line 427 expects a .catch() block, but only .then() is chained. When loadData() completes, it passes incomplete data to parseUserInput(), which attempts to call a formatter function that was never attached to this Promise path.

HYPOTHESIS DRIVEN FIX:
1. Add .catch() to loadData() Promise (lines 124-130)
2. Verify formatter function is bound before parseUserInput() runs
3. Add null-check guard at line 426

TEST: Wrap loadData() in try-catch, log config state before parseUserInput() invocation, step through Promise chain in debugger at line 423.
