transcript_search: {e}

Error message

transcript_search: {e}

What it means

Generic wrapper from transcript_search: the memory-conversations search failed after the query, limit and exclude-thread resolution. The underlying {e} is the search-layer error — typically the memory/search backend being unavailable or the conversation index failing.

Solutions

1. Read {e} for the search backend failure
2. Retry — search backends can fail transiently
3. Broaden or shorten the query if the failure is resource-related
