Description

Description

In apps/web/src/components/header.tsx (lines 68-72), the async onClick handler for copying the SVG logo has three unhandled promise rejections:

  • fetch() can fail if the network is unavailable
  • res.text() can throw if response parsing fails
  • navigator.clipboard.writeText() can throw if clipboard access is denied

Current Behavior

Silent failure with no user feedback.

Expected Behavior

Wrap in try-catch and show toast error on failure.

Files

  • apps/web/src/components/header.tsx:68-72

Research direction

Start in apps/web/src/components/header.tsx at lines 68-72 and trace the async copy handler. Add failure handling for fetch, response parsing, and clipboard access, with a toast error on failure; done means these failures no longer produce silent unhandled rejections.
