My sprite appears to be stuck:

$ sprite sessions list
Error: failed to list sessions: failed to list sessions: Get "https://api.sprites.dev/v1/sprites/omar-storyworth-dev/exec": net/http: request canceled (Client.Timeout exceeded while awaiting headers)

$ sprite console --debug

Is there anything I can do to get this sprite unstuck?

Hi Omar, we’ve just run an upgrade on that Sprite and it looks to be up and running. Can you try console to it now?

It works now! Thanks. This happens to me fairly often - is there anything I can do to prevent sprites from getting stuck, or unblock them myself?
