Description

It seems the length for labels can be 50 characters max.

Error message:

HttpError: Validation Failed: {"value":"released on @feature/SUVI-2176-Unfallmeldung-Erstzeuge-falsche-Adressdaten-werden-nicht-als-Fehlergrund-markiert","resource":"Label","field":"name","code":"invalid"}

Research direction

Start by reproducing the label feature with the long branch name shown in the error and inspect where the release process creates that label. Done means a branch name of this length no longer causes GitHub's label validation to fail and the release completes successfully.
