Environment {} not found

Error message

Environment {} not found

What it means

Thrown on the `warp environment get <id>` path when ServerId::try_from(id.as_str()) fails, i.e. the argument is not syntactically a valid ServerId. The code treats an unparseable ID as equivalent to 'not found' and force-terminates with 'Environment {id} not found'. Note this happens after the Warp Drive sync gate, and before any object lookup.

Solutions

1. Run `warp environment list` and copy the exact id column value (the ServerId string)
2. Check the argument for stray whitespace, quotes, or newline before passing it
3. If the environment shows 'Unsynced' in list output, wait for it to sync — a ClientId is not accepted by get
4. Quote the ID in shell to prevent expansion issues

Example fix

# before
warp environment get "my-dev-env "

# after
warp environment list   # copy the real id, e.g. 0192abc4-...
warp environment get 0192abc4-7def-7000-8000-1c2d3e4f5a6b

// Rust: parse-check before invoking get
use crate::server::ids::ServerId;
fn is_valid_environment_id(id: &str) -> bool {
    ServerId::try_from(id).is_ok()
}

fn is_server_id(id: &str) -> bool {
    ServerId::try_from(id.trim()).is_ok()
}

match ServerId::try_from(id.as_str()) {
    Ok(sid) => { /* proceed with SyncId::ServerId(sid) */ },
    Err(_) => { /* suggest `warp environment list` to fetch the real ID */ },
}

When it happens

Trigger: Passing an environment name instead of its server ID, a truncated/corrupted ID from copy-paste, an ID with surrounding whitespace or a newline, or a ClientId-based ('Unsynced') identifier that is not a ServerId.

Common situations: Users assume `get` accepts the environment name shown in `list` output; scripts copy the display ID but mangle it; shell variable expansion adds whitespace; the environment was created locally and never synced so only a ClientId exists.
