Splitting an App across files could deploy it with none of its functions.

# app.py
app = runpod.App("svc")

# workers.py
from app import app

@app.queue(cpu="cpu3c-1-2")
def gen(x): ...

rp flash deploy . on this project could exit 0 with zero functions and delete the live endpoints. app.py was loaded twice under two module names, which made two Apps, and the empty one was deployed.

Now project files load under their normal Python import names, so every file shares one App and gen deploys. A package keeps its folder in the artifact, so from .app import app also works on the worker.

Deploy now stops before building when a file fails to import, when two files create separate Apps with the same name, or when an App has no functions. Each of those previously shipped a partial app, and a partial deploy removes whatever endpoints are missing from it.

rp flash dev now takes a folder the same way deploy does, so both commands see the same functions. A local entrypoint is optional, and --entrypoint module:function picks one when a project has several. A broken edit during a session keeps the current endpoints up until the next good save.
