deadends.dev
<!-- mcp-name: dev.deadends/deadends-dev -->
Stop AI agents from repeating known failures - in code AND in the real world.
AI assistants reliably fumble two kinds of problems: known-failed code fixes, and country-specific real-world rules they've never been exposed to in training. deadends.dev now covers both:
hits ModuleNotFoundError, CUDA OOM, CrashLoopBackOff, etc.
- Code errors (2,089 entries, 51 domains): what NOT to try when an agent
(ETA/eVisitor, NZeTA, e-visas, arrival cards), banking requirements, legal red lines (lèse-majesté, §86a, Article 301), cultural taboos (chopsticks in rice, clock gifts in China, red-ink names in Korea), food safety (tap-water safety by country), emergency numbers, driving norms (left-hand traffic), housing contracts - all the friction where a plausible-sounding global answer is wrong locally.
- Country-scoped dead ends (250+ entries across 52 countries): visa rules
Why the expansion? Coding dead ends are largely solved by a good LLM.
Country-specific friction - Japanese hanko requirements, Schengen 90/180
math, Ramadan business hours, Saudi alcohol ban, Indian beef taboos - is
where generic AI advice breaks hardest. The codebase and schema are
identical; the env segment just carries a country code.

Why Use This?
What makes this different from asking an LLM?
code (kr, jp, us, de...) so the same taboo can be answered differently for different jurisdictions.
- Deterministic: Same query → same answer, every time. No hallucination.
- Country-scoped: ID format {domain}/{slug}/{env} - env holds the country
or verifiable reporting. No "based on general knowledge" answers.
- Primary-sourced: Every country canon cites government sites, embassies,
- Community-validated: Fix success rates updated from real outcome reports.
- Sub-millisecond: Local regex matching, no API roundtrip.
