Error message

{exception message from get_channel_voices (ValueError)}

What it means

HTTP 400 branch in GET /channels/{channel_id}/voices that catches ValueError from channels.get_channel_voices(). In the current service implementation get_channel_voices() only queries the profile-channel mapping table and returns a list; it never raises ValueError. The catch is defensive scaffolding, so with the present code this 400 is effectively unreachable. A miss on the channel ID simply returns an empty profile_ids list (200), not a 404 and not this 400.

Solutions

1. Do not write client code expecting a 400 here; rely on the 200 + empty list semantics today.
2. If you see this error, diff backend/services/channels.py for a new ValueError in get_channel_voices().
3. Treat an empty profile_ids result as 'channel has no voices or channel is absent'.

const r = await fetch(`/channels/${id}/voices`);
if (r.status === 400) { /* not produced by current service; check for code drift */ }

When it happens

Trigger: Not reachable with the current service code; would only fire if a future change to get_channel_voices() adds a ValueError raise (e.g. validating the channel exists).

Common situations: Encountering this in logs would indicate the service contract changed; otherwise callers should not expect it.
