Browser credential harvest timed out after

Error message

Browser credential harvest timed out after ${timeoutMs}ms

What it means

Wrapped error from harvestFromContainer's catch block: the AbortController fired before the cookie/localStorage harvest completed, so any underlying failure is replaced with this timeout sentinel. Means the CDP conversation (connect + Storage.getCookies / DOM storage reads) exceeded harvestTimeoutMs (default 20s) against the browser container — a slow or wedged Chromium, or an oversized profile being enumerated.

Solutions

1. Retry the harvest — transient browser slowness on first profile load often clears
2. Increase VNC_CONFIG.harvestTimeoutMs if profiles are large
3. Confirm the container's browser is responsive (CDP /json/version answers quickly)
4. If it consistently times out, stop the session and restart browser login with a fresh profile

When it happens

Understand the failure class

• Timeouts: ETIMEDOUT, deadlines, and hung requests — what actually expires when a request times out.
