 ## Troubleshooting
 
 - **Runner not picking up jobs:** `brew services restart act_runner`
+- **Runner still queued after restart:** re-register against `http://127.0.0.1:3300` instead of `http://localhost:3300`
 - **Stale .next/lock:** `rm -f /Users/sd9235/code/mygh/learning_ai_common_plat/dashboards/*-web/.next/lock`
 - **Permission denied on tsc:** `chmod +x /Users/sd9235/code/mygh/learning_ai_common_plat/node_modules/.bin/*`
 - **Check runner log:** `tail -30 /opt/homebrew/var/log/act_runner.err`
