Why is My Python-Based Automation Workflow Not Showing any Logs or Exports from a Node Despite Working Normally?

Hello all, I built an automation a while ago and just cracked it back open. After refamiliarizing myself with it, I started testing it and i’m getting some odd behavior. I’m hitting a specific node and clicking Test from workflow start. The workflow test runs as expected but goes up to the node I clicked on, I see the loading circle denoting the node is running then it finishes, says the node is still stale and no new logs or exports are coming from the node. I’m also not seeing any errors. It’s entirely possible something in the Python code is breaking but I’m not seeing it, it’s also entirely possible the Python is working as expected but it’s still not showing logs or any exports from the node. I’ve included 2 screenshots, the first (dated this morning at 8:23am) is the node right before and the second screen shot (dated yesterday at 4:40pm) is the node in question. Any help or feedback would be great, thanks!

I looked at the dev tools and found

"error": {
                    "code": "Error",
                    "message": "Command failed: <redacted for length>",
                    "ts": "2026-03-04T20:16:42.003Z",
                    "cellId": null,
                    "stack": "Error: Command failed: <redacted for length>",
                    "$debug": null,
                    "name": "Error"
                }

This error is not coming across in the UI anywhere that I can find. it’s failing silently as far as I can tell
