Session not found: ${uid}

Error message

Session not found: ${uid}

What it means

The `manus read` command calls `session.v1.SessionService/ListSessions` (first page, pageSize 100) and then searches the returned array for a session whose `uid` matches the argument. If no session matches, it throws this EmptyResultError rather than returning empty output. It is a lookup miss, not an API failure — the request succeeded but the target session was not in the returned list.

Solutions

1. Run `manus list` and confirm the exact uid you meant; copy it verbatim.
2. Verify the browser profile the CLI uses is authenticated as the account that owns the session (re-login if needed).
3. Check the session wasn't deleted or archived in the Manus UI.
4. If the account has more than 100 sessions, the first-page ListSessions lookup may miss it — use the session directly from `manus list` output or reduce the count.

Example fix

// before (guessed/stale uid)
$ manus read sess_OLD123
// EmptyResultError: Session not found: sess_OLD123

// after (uid taken from list output)
$ manus list
$ manus read sess_01J8ZK3M9A

const sessions = JSON.parse(run('manus list --json'));
if (!sessions.some(s => s.uid === targetUid)) {
  throw new Error(`Unknown session uid: ${targetUid} — run 'manus list' for valid uids`);
}

const isKnownSession = (uid, sessions) => Array.isArray(sessions) && sessions.some(s => s && s.uid === uid);

try {
  const rows = await run('manus read', uid);
} catch (e) {
  if (e instanceof EmptyResultError) {
    console.error(`Session ${uid} not found; fetch a valid uid via 'manus list'.`);
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Passing a uid that does not exist, was deleted/archived so it no longer appears in ListSessions, is not owned by the currently authenticated account, or is a typo; also when the session exists but falls beyond page 1's 100 sessions and the helper only queries the first page.

Common situations: Re-reading a session from a stale reference after it was deleted; running on a browser profile logged into a different Manus account than the one that created the session; truncated or mangled uid copied from a URL; account with >100 sessions.

Understand the failure class

Background: 'Could not be found', 'does not exist', 'not found in database': the resource-not-found family when an ID, slug, key, or URI lookup comes back empty — this error's family across 20 libraries.
