Success rate: 2/10 (20%) — chronic failure pattern

Failure Pattern

Failing runs complete in 2 minutes (early exit), while successful runs take 7-8 minutes. This suggests:

  • The agent is hitting an error early and failing fast
  • Possible tool failure, permission issue, or safe-output validation error

Affected Runs

Suggested Investigation

  1. Check recent run logs for error messages in the agent output
  2. Verify safe-output tool calls are valid (item_number specified)
  3. Check if the workflow is encountering permission errors on GitHub API
  4. Review if recent changes to step naming conventions caused mismatches
