Research direction

Start with the linked run and the workflow source at .github/workflows/nightly-workflow-compiler.md; follow the debugging instructions in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gh-aw/main/debug.md. Investigate why the workflow reported report_incomplete despite one safe-output MCP call and persisted record. Done means identifying and addressing the cause so a run can confirm task completion.

Branch: main

Next step

Review the failure details below for a targeted fix, or assign this issue to a coding agent to investigate.

Failure details
Runtime evidence

[!WARNING]
Task Could Not Be Completed: The workflow recorded a report_incomplete signal: the task was not completed or completion could not be confirmed.

Error details: 
Completion signal: agent reported incomplete (reason and details excluded)
Safe-output tools: available at gateway snapshot (registered 5 tools)
Safe-output CLI calls observed: unknown (not recorded)
Safe-output MCP calls observed: 1
Safe-output persistence: nonempty (1 record, 0 malformed; not validation or publication evidence)

A comment or other safe output does not confirm that the requested task was completed. Only inferred runtime status and error codes are reported; agent text is excluded.

Copy a debugging prompt

Paste this into your coding agent:

Debug the agentic workflow "nightly-workflow-compiler" failure.
Follow https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gh-aw/main/debug.md
Failed run: https://github.com/github/gh-aw-mcpg/actions/runs/40354251111

If the repository includes the agentic-workflows skill, load it before investigating.

Manage failure notifications

To stop creating failure issues for this workflow, set this in its frontmatter and recompile:

safe-outputs:
  report-failure-as-issue: false

This only disables issue reporting; it does not fix the failure.
