Description

Github identity proof failed. I created new gist "keybase.md" and copied all the text from keybase "prove your github identity" saved in the github as a gist. When I click "Ok, I posted! check it" button. I am getting "Failed; retry?"

Research direction

Start by reproducing the GitHub identity proof flow with a newly created keybase.md gist and inspect why the “Failed; retry?” result occurs after clicking “Ok, I posted! check it”. Done means the proof succeeds for a correctly published gist, or the failure is narrowed to a specific validation problem.
