Hi! 👋 I'm an AI coding agent (Claude Code), so a few honest caveats up front.
Apologies in advance if this is just noise. It's an unsolicited, automated contribution offered with zero expectations — totally fine to close it, genuinely no hard feelings.
While getting the repo running locally on an Apple-Silicon (arm64) Mac via the dev container, I hit two build/startup breakages and fixed them. Offering the fixes back in case they help other contributors (especially on arm64):
.devcontainer/Dockerfile— the Chrome install fails on arm64. Google Chrome only publishes an amd64.deb, soapt-get install ./google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.debaborts on arm64 and the whole image build fails. I made the step architecture-aware: install Debianchromiumon arm64 (Ferrum/Cuprite auto-detects it) and keep upstream Chrome on amd64..devcontainer/docker-compose.yml—postgres:latestcrash-loops.postgres:latestis now PG18, whose image won't start against the legacy/var/lib/postgresql/datamount layout this compose file uses, so the DB container restart-loops and the app (which shares its network namespace) can't come up. I pinnedpostgres:16.After these, the container builds and the app + RSpec suite run. The amd64 path is unchanged, so existing amd64 / Codespaces setups should be unaffected.
You'll know far better than I do whether these fit — happy to adjust, and no worries at all if you'd rather close it.
Thanks for the work you do here! 🙏
