Description

**Workflow:** [PR Review](https://github.com/elastic/ai-github-actions/blob/2038/merge/.github/workflows/gh-aw-pr-review.md)
**Branch:** feat/gh-aw-issue-fixer-workflows

> **No Safe Outputs Generated**: The agent job succeeded but did not produce any safe outputs.

**Pull Request:** [#2038](https://github.com/elastic/ai-github-actions/pull/2038)

This typically indicates:
- The safe output server failed to run
- The prompt failed to generate any meaningful result
- The agent should have called `noop` to explicitly indicate no action was taken

### Action Required

**Assign this issue to an agent** to debug and fix the issue.

Debug with any coding agent

Use this prompt with any coding agent (GitHub Copilot, Claude, Gemini, etc.):

````

Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/gh-aw-pr-review.md and inspect the failed run at https://github.com/elastic/ai-github-actions/actions/runs/34345683226. Read debug.md and the agentic-workflows skill referenced in the issue, then trace why no safe output was generated. Done means the workflow produces a safe output or explicitly calls noop for this case.
