Urgent Help Needed – Deployment Bug in Bolt, Project Disappeared!

[jdmart10-trusted]

Describe the bug

Hey Team,

I’m reaching out in a bit of a panic because I’ve hit a critical snag while trying to deploy a school landing page I created with Bolt. I’m on a very tight deadline, and this issue is completely blocking my progress.

Here’s what happened:

I built a landing page in Bolt, and everything looked fine.
When I attempted to deploy, the system displayed an error message that it couldn’t deploy because I was “not in a chat.”
Immediately after this message, the site refreshed itself, and my entire project vanished.
It’s beyond frustrating because I need to deliver the final product today—and now I can’t access or recover my work. I’m also worried because I’ve used up a bunch of tokens in the process. This is the first time I’ve encountered this issue, but I’m really desperate for a solution.

Important Note:
I’m very hesitant to start over from scratch because I’m not sure if the same error will happen again after I invest more hours of work. I really need to figure out how to recover or restore the existing project as soon as possible.

Key Details & Questions:

I was definitely logged in and actively working on my project in Bolt when the error occurred.
The exact error was that Bolt couldn’t deploy because I was “not in a chat,” which doesn’t make sense to me.
Immediately after the error, the page refreshed, and my project was gone.
Is there any way to recover the project or roll back to an earlier version?
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue or know of a workaround?
I urgently need a fix or advice to meet my deadline. Any assistance you can offer would be incredibly appreciated!

Thank you so much for your help.
