Research direction

Start with the failed GitHub Actions run linked in the issue and read https://raw.githubusercontent.com/github/gh-aw/main/debug.md. Also review .github/agents/agentic-workflows.agent.md and the Repo Assist workflow reference. Done means identifying and fixing the infrastructure or tool failure that prevented the mandatory checks from completing.

Description

Workflow Failure

Workflow: Repo Assist
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/dotnet/fsharp/actions/runs/35223171511
Pull Request: #15107

⚠️ Task Could Not Be Completed: The agent reported that the task could not be performed due to an infrastructure or tool failure.

Reasons:

  • GitHub read tools became unavailable before the scheduled workflow could complete mandatory issue and comment-history checks.

    The run loaded state (c=0, lr=2026-09-17, woc=18119, rtc=14596), confirmed no open windows-only issue above woc from the retrieved list, no fixed-label candidate above rtc from the retrieved result, and no open AI-Issue-Regression-PR from the successful search. The Bug backlog query timed out and then the GitHub MCP guard remained unavailable, including in an isolated research agent. Repo Assist therefore could not verify same-day Bug activity or read the monthly issue's full comments, so no GitHub labels, comments, PRs, summary edits, or memory changes were safely made.

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.
