error listing Routers: %w

Error message

error listing Routers: %w

What it means

Wrapped error from Router.Find when the Routers.Get call fails with a non-404 error. The 'listing' wording is misleading — it is a single-router Get during discovery; fires on permissions, wrong region/name, or GCE API failures.
