refreshAll() is invalid for live queries. Use reconnectAll()

Error message

refreshAll() is invalid for live queries. Use reconnectAll() instead.

What it means

`refreshAll()` re-runs regular queries to fetch fresh data; live queries instead maintain a server-push subscription, so refreshing them is meaningless. SvelteKit throws this to redirect you to `reconnectAll()`, which re-establishes the underlying live connections.

Solutions

1. Replace `.refreshAll()` with `.reconnectAll()` for live-query batches.
2. Keep separate helper functions for refreshing regular vs live batches.
3. If the data should be pull-based, change the remote function from `query.live` to `query`.

Example fix

// before
await requested(liveNotifications, Infinity).refreshAll();
// after
await requested(liveNotifications, Infinity).reconnectAll();

function isLiveQueryBatch(fn) { return fn.type === 'query_live'; }

try {
  if (isLiveQueryBatch(myQuery)) await batch.reconnectAll();
  else await batch.refreshAll();
} catch (e) {
  console.error(e.message);
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling `requested(myLiveQuery, limit).refreshAll()` where `myLiveQuery` was created with `query.live(...)` (type `query_live`).

Common situations: Copy-pasting refresh logic written for regular queries into a component that batch-iterates live queries; refactoring a `query` into `query.live` without updating the refresh calls.
