I assume you're running this using sudo from uid 1001.  Since that is
also how you did the create and chown, that should be ok.  I'm not
understanding why the cg does not exist.

The least confusing thing to do might be to have root do
something like

cgm movepidabs all / $$
cgm create all go
cgm chown all go $(id -u go) $(id -g go)
cgh movepid all go $(pid)

It's in a private namespace.  You'd have to mount it yourself to
see.
