A developer discovered a subtle bug in their project where the server script's environment variable loader failed to find the `.env` file unless executed from a specific directory. This was due to the server script looking for `.env` relative to the current working directory, unlike the client script which correctly resolved it relative to its own file location. The issue was reproduced by changing the working directory, confirming that the server script relied on an unstated assumption about its execution environment, leading to `KeyError` exceptions when credentials were later accessed.
