Workflow Failure

Workflow: Daily SPDD Spec Planner
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/github/gh-aw/actions/runs/33320844305

Warning

Excessive Tool Denials: The Copilot SDK hit the max tool denial guardrail and stopped the session early (3/3).

Last denied request

shell(nl -ba -v0 /tmp/gh-aw/agent/full_list.txt)

Last 5 tool calls

• bash(grep -n "^## Sync Notes\|^## Sync Follow-ups\|^## REASONS\|^### Safeguards\|^### Norms" specs/security-architecture-s...)
• view
• bash(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)
• bash(cat /tmp/gh-aw/cache-memory/spdd-daily/rotation.json)
• bash(nl -ba -v0 /tmp/gh-aw/agent/full_list.txt)

This is a structured guardrail event (guard.tool_denials_exceeded) captured in events.jsonl.

How to fix this

The prompt attempted actions outside the workflow's allowed tools.

Update the workflow prompt and/or permissions so required actions are permitted:

The workflow daily-spdd-spec-planner stopped because the Copilot SDK exceeded its tool denial threshold (3/3).
Last denied request:
shell(nl -ba -v0 /tmp/gh-aw/agent/full_list.txt)

Please update the workflow so the prompt only uses tools permitted by the workflow tool policy.

Agent Timed Out: The agent job exceeded the maximum allowed execution time (20 minutes).

To increase the timeout, add or update the timeout-minutes setting in your workflow's frontmatter:

---
timeout-minutes: 30
