Browser-login session is not running

Error message

Browser-login session is not running (${session.status})

What it means

State guard in harvestSession: the session exists but its status is not 'running' (e.g. 'starting', 'harvesting', 'stopping', 'error'); the actual status is embedded. Means credential harvest was requested against a session that hasn't finished booting, is mid-harvest, or is tearing down — the browser container is not in a stable state to read cookies from.

Solutions

1. Wait until the session reports status 'running' (CDP readiness) and retry the harvest
2. Do not double-harvest: a session already in 'harvesting' will return to 'running' in its finally block
3. Restart the session if it is stuck in 'starting' or 'error'
