When the multi-workspace thread restoration feature serializes the active thread's session ID, it includes empty threads that were never persisted to the database (because `NativeAgent::save_thread` skips empty threads). On restart, `AgentPanel::load()` tries to restore this thread by calling `load_agent_thread()`, which queries the SQLite DB. Since the empty thread was never saved, the query returns `None`, which becomes the error: "no thread found with ID: SessionId(...)". This shows as "Error Loading Zed Agent" / "Failed to Launch" in the UI. **Fix:** Before attempting to restore a serialized thread on panel load, query the DB to verify the thread actually exists. If it doesn't, log an error and skip restoration (the panel falls back to creating a new thread as normal). Closes AI-19 Release Notes: - Fixed an "Error Loading Zed Agent" error that could appear when opening a workspace where the previous agent thread was empty.
