### Operating system
macOS 26.3.1 (25D2128)
### Expected behaviour
After allowing permission for reading file it should start reading the files.
### Actual behaviour
Getting this error while allowing access to read files : request_id: 7695f6e4-f4f7-4f23-b77d-7b1690dbd3a5, error: An unknown error occurred: ValidationException, below is the thing which is occuring.
```
go through the EADR_Steps.xlsx and EADRWorkflow.png and understand the project details, and also go through the xml and typescript files of EADR
Let me read all the EADR files systematically.
● Read /Volumes/workplace/AndonOrca/src/RBSAndonOrcaDefinitionsWorkflowDefinitions/configuration/orca-definitions/type-scripts/EADRWorkflow.png
● Read /Volumes/workplace/AndonOrca/src/RBSAndonOrcaDefinitionsWorkflowDefinitions/configuration/orca-definitions/herd-graph/prod-na/EADR_TEST.xml

```
### Steps to reproduce
just give this prompt to read files and then it would ask to allow permissions for reading, after that it is failing.
