Repository link ${session.projectRepositoryId} was not found

Error message

Repository link ${session.projectRepositoryId} was not found

What it means

A Factory session references a project-repository link (projectRepositoryId). If storage.projectRepositories.get returns nothing for that id in the session's org, createWorkspaceFactory throws because it cannot determine which repository the workspace should be built around.

Solutions

1. Recreate the repository link (projectRepositories.create) and update the session's projectRepositoryId
2. Confirm the link exists in the same org: storage.projectRepositories.get({ orgId: session.orgId, id: session.projectRepositoryId })
3. Delete and recreate the session against a valid repository link if the old link is unrecoverable

Example fix

// before
const factory = await createWorkspaceFactory({ session }); // link deleted
// after
const link = await storage.projectRepositories.get({ orgId: session.orgId, id: session.projectRepositoryId });
if (!link) {
  const newLink = await storage.projectRepositories.create({ orgId: session.orgId, connectionId, repositoryId });
  await storage.sessions.update({ id: session.id, projectRepositoryId: newLink.id });
}
const factory = await createWorkspaceFactory({ session });

const link = await storage.projectRepositories.get({ orgId: session.orgId, id: session.projectRepositoryId });
if (!link) throw new Error(`Repository link ${session.projectRepositoryId} missing; recreate it before resolving the session`);

null

try {
  factory = await createWorkspaceFactory({ session, user });
} catch (e) {
  if (e.message.includes('Repository link') && e.message.includes('was not found')) {
    // recreate link + update session, then retry once
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Resolving a session whose projectRepositoryId points to a deleted project-repository link, an id from another org, or a session created against storage that has since been cleared/migrated.

Common situations: Repository link deleted by an admin while a session still references it, restoring sessions from a backup without the linked projectRepositories rows, or cross-environment storage mismatch.
