No Close svg visible — no banner to dismiss?

Error message

No Close svg visible — no banner to dismiss?

What it means

The kimi dismiss-banner command clicks the first visible SVG named 'Close' to dismiss a sidebar banner. If no Close svg is visible, clickBySvgNameScript returns {ok:false} and the command throws EmptyResultError with the explanatory message 'No Close svg visible — no banner to dismiss?'. This is a soft/informational failure: it usually just means there is nothing to dismiss.

Solutions

1. Treat as benign: if no banner is present the goal is already achieved — catch EmptyResultError and continue
2. Retry once after a short wait in case the banner mounts late
3. Check in the browser whether a banner is actually visible; if yes but the svg name differs, update the clickBySvgNameScript target
4. Make the command idempotent in your script: skip dismiss-banner when a previous run already reported 'dismissed'

Example fix

// before
await runCli('kimi dismiss-banner');
// after
try { await runCli('kimi dismiss-banner'); } catch (e) { if (e.name === 'EmptyResultError') console.log('No banner — nothing to do'); else throw e; }

const hasClose = await page.evaluate(`!!document.querySelector("svg[name='Close']")`);
if (!hasClose) return { skipped: true, reason: 'no banner present' };

function isClickResult(res) { return res != null && typeof res === 'object' && typeof res.ok === 'boolean'; }

try {
  await runCli('kimi dismiss-banner');
} catch (e) {
  if (e.name === 'EmptyResultError' || /no banner/i.test(e.message)) return; // nothing to dismiss = success
  throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Running `kimi dismiss-banner` when no banner is currently shown: the banner was already dismissed (possibly persisted per-account), no promotional banner exists for this account, the banner renders after the evaluate runs, or Kimi changed the Close svg name.

Common situations: Calling dismiss-banner as part of a cleanup script on a fresh account with no banner; re-running after a previous successful dismissal; slow hydration so the banner svg hasn't mounted yet.
