Workflow Failure
Workflow: Smoke Safe-Outputs PRs
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/github/gh-aw-mcpg/actions/runs/31947274364
Warning
Task Could Not Be Completed: The agent reported that the task could not be performed due to an infrastructure or tool failure.
Reasons:
-
Accidentally consumed the create_issue quota (max:1) with a test placeholder call before submitting the final detailed smoke-test report issue, so the full test-results issue could not be created.
Test execution results (for reference):
Phase 1 (create-pull-request): All 3 sub-tests passed as expected — 1.1 draft PR created successfully, 1.2 and 1.3 correctly rejected due to max:1 already used.
Phases 2-6 (update-pull-request, push-to-pull-request-branch, mark-pull-request-as-ready-for-review, add-reviewer, close-pull-request): All SKIPPED because this run was triggered byschedule, notpull_request, so no triggering PR context existed for these auto-targeting handlers. Each call correctly returned an error indicating no PR context was available.
Mistake: I ran safeoutputs create_issue --title "test" --body "test body content here 1234567890" as a quick CLI-flag-syntax check (to verify piping vs flags), not realizing this would consume the run's create_issue quota (max:1) and immediately record a real, minimal placeholder issue titled "test". This was accidental and not part of the intended test procedure. When I subsequently tried to submit the real, detailed report titled "Smoke Safe-Outputs PRs: 31947274364" with full results, it was rejected: "E002: create_issue limit reached — 1 of 1 already used this run".
Recommendation: A manual follow-up issue with the full results table above may need to be created separately, or the placeholder "test" issue should be edited/replaced with the full report content.
This is a structured incompletion signal (report_incomplete), not a real task outcome. Any other safe outputs emitted alongside this signal (e.g., comments) describe the failure state, not a completed review or action.
