Empty display, no sessions. Gemini CLI

Quick fix

Upgrade to a CC Switch version that includes .jsonl session-reading support to display sessions from the newer Gemini CLI.

Symptom

Section titled “Symptom”
Error output
显示为空，无会话。
English translation

The display is empty; there are no sessions.

Cause

Section titled “Cause”

The newer Gemini CLI saves session records as `.gemini/tmp/<hash>/chats/session-*.jsonl` and also migrates `.json` to `.jsonl` when restoring old sessions. CC Switch v4.0.0 reads only `chats/*.json`, so the session list is empty.

This issue is unrelated to Windows and also occurs on other systems. The fix was added in #7866, covering the session list, message details, long-output expansion, and Gemini usage statistics while retaining support for displaying older `.json` sessions.

Fix

Section titled “Fix”

  1. Check whether the `.gemini/tmp/<hash>/chats` directory contains `session-*.jsonl` files to confirm this issue.

  2. Upgrade to a CC Switch release that includes the #7866 fix.
