[aw] Daily Safe Outputs Git Simulator failed — memory/git-simulator branch needs signed-commit seed #38289

Problem

Workflow: Daily Safe Outputs Git Simulator (daily-safeoutputs-git-simulator.lock.yml)
Run: §27256126843 — 2026-06-10 05:48 UTC
Failure stage: push_repo_memory job
Status: 0% success rate (1/1 failed today — first-ever run)

Error

remote: error: GH013: Repository rule violations found for refs/heads/memory/git-simulator.
remote: - Commits must have verified signatures.
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/github/gh-aw.git'
[remote rejected] memory/git-simulator -> memory/git-simulator (push declined due to repository rule violations)
Failed to push changes after 4 attempts: pushSignedCommits: failed to push orphan branch 'memory/git-simulator' (first commit).

Root Cause

The daily-safeoutputs-git-simulator workflow uses repo-memory with branch-name: memory/git-simulator. The memory/git-simulator branch does not yet exist (missing from the 21 known memory/* branches). The repository requires verified/signed commits, and the push_repo_memory action cannot sign the initial orphan branch commit automatically.

This is the same infrastructure pattern that affects all new memory/* branches — the branch must be manually seeded with a signed commit before the workflow can write to it.

Impact

• P1 — workflow completely blocked, cannot run any iteration
• All Z3-style constraint enumeration for safe outputs git configurations is halted
• No data accumulates in memory/git-simulator until branch is seeded

Fix

Create the orphan branch with a signed commit:

git switch --orphan memory/git-simulator
git commit --allow-empty -S -m "Initialize memory/git-simulator"
git push origin memory/git-simulator

Alternatively, use the GitHub API to create a signed commit via the repository's existing signing infrastructure.

Affected Workflows

• daily-safeoutputs-git-simulator.md — direct failure
• Pattern affects any future new memory/* branch
