Fix it with Stella · Dev tools
Containers won't come up? Logs read. Stack green.
Permission-denied volumes, “port is already allocated,” a container stuck in a restart loop. Stella reads your compose file and the actual container logs on your machine, fixes the volume ownership, frees or remaps the port, corrects the YAML, and brings the stack up green.
Free. No credit card, no trial. Go is $5/mo, Pro is $15/mo.

Try this prompt
“docker compose up fails with 'permission denied' on a volume and one container keeps restarting. Fix the stack.”
You: docker compose up fails with 'permission denied' on a volume and one container keeps restarting. Fix the stack. Stella: Volume ownership is wrong and a port is already taken. I'll chown the bind mount and remap the port. You: Bring it up. Stella: YAML corrected, stack is healthy. Restart loop is gone.
On this problem
What Stella actually does.
- Reads the compose file and the failing containers' logs — the actual errors
- Fixes bind-mount ownership with the right chown or user: mapping
- Finds what's squatting on the conflicting port and frees or remaps it
- Corrects the YAML, re-ups the stack, and watches until everything is healthy
Ready when you are
docker compose up. Green.
