Session sharing is temporarily disabled

Error message

Session sharing is temporarily disabled

What it means

The session share command is a stub that unconditionally bails with 'Session sharing is temporarily disabled'. It ignores its arguments (`let _ = (args, agent_config)`) — no configuration or credential can enable it. This is an intentional server-side/product-level disable, not a user error.

Solutions

1. Do not use session sharing — it is disabled in this build; export the session transcript via other means (e.g. copy the session file).
2. Check release notes/docs for when sharing returns.
3. Remove share steps from scripts/workflows and handle the failure.

// detect and degrade gracefully
match result {
    Err(e) if e.to_string().contains("temporarily disabled") => {
        eprintln!("sharing unavailable; exporting transcript locally instead");
        export_local_transcript()?;
    }
    other => other?,
}

When it happens

Trigger: Any invocation of `grok share <session_id>` (run in share_cmd.rs) regardless of arguments or config.

Common situations: Following older documentation or workflows that used session sharing; automation scripts still calling the share subcommand.
