Description

Workflow Failure

Workflow: Release Changelog Generator
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/github/copilot-sdk/actions/runs/34855078063

[!WARNING]
No Safe Outputs Generated: The agent job succeeded but did not produce any safe outputs.

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

Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/release-changelog.md and the failed run linked in the issue. Read the gh-aw debug.md guidance and the agentic-workflows skill, then trace why the agent produced no safe outputs; done means the workflow either generates the expected changelog output or explicitly calls noop when no action is needed.
