| Symptom | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
Launcher signature headers are required | The action needs to be signed with the wallet you launched from. | Connect that wallet and sign again. |
Chat shows This droid needs USDC before it can think. | The droid runtime wallet is empty (next inference would throw Insufficient USDC runway). | Send USDC on Base to the wallet address shown in the Droid panel. |
| Status Needs attention / runway 0 days. | Balance is low or empty (or the last scheduler tick failed). | Top up with USDC on Base. If runway is healthy and the status still flips, the runtime link may be stale — wait for the next tick. |
| Voice prompt over the limit / Clank button blocks. | The voice prompt exceeds the 10,000-character cap. | The deploy form shows a live character counter and an inline error — trim the prompt below 10k and the Clank button will unblock. |
| Reward split rejected at launch when enabling a droid. | Adding the droid leg would exceed the 7-recipient on-chain cap (max 6 form reward admins + 1 droid leg). | Remove a reward admin entry from your split, then re-enable the droid. |
| Unusual positions / possible copy banner. | These are Clanker.world warning tags, not droid-specific. | See Clanker.world Warning Tags. |
