DF8205: Terminal Session Is Not Restartable

Terminal session "{id}" is not restartable

Message

Terminal session "{id}" is not restartable

Cause

hub:terminals:restart was called for a session registered with restartable: false. That flag marks a session whose lifecycle is owned elsewhere — for example a one-shot build, or a server (like code-server) that should be restarted through its own controls rather than by re-spawning the raw process. A hub-aware terminal UI hides its restart affordance for these sessions, and the RPC rejects a direct call.

Fix

  • Restart the session through its owner's controls (the plugin or dock that started it), not the generic terminal restart.
  • If in-place restarts are safe, spawn it with restartable: true (the default) in the terminal descriptor passed to startChildProcess() / startPtySession().
