Job 63148626319 failed in PR #641 during smoke-copilot workflow execution. Investigation determined the root cause was PR #641's restrictive volume mounting changes, not command quoting issues as initially suspected.

Investigation Summary

Command Structure Analysis

  • Workflow uses -- '/usr/local/bin/copilot ... "$(cat /tmp/gh-aw/aw-prompts/prompt.txt)"'
  • Single quotes prevent host-side expansion (correct behavior)
  • Container receives $(cat ...) after Docker Compose escaping ($$$$)
  • Current main branch has identical structure and passes

Root Cause: PR #641 Volume Mounts

  • Removed blanket home directory mount: ${effectiveHome}:${effectiveHome}:rw
  • Replaced with selective mounts (.copilot, workspace, specific subdirs)
  • Broke workflow by restricting access to required paths
  • PR Lpcox/remove home runner access #641 never merged; main branch continues with original approach

Outcome

No fix implemented. PR #641 was abandoned due to this failure, and main branch workflows continue working with original volume mounting strategy. Complete error logs from job 63148626319 would be needed to identify the specific missing mount and complete the fix.

This analysis documents the investigation for future reference if similar security-focused volume mount restrictions are attempted.

Original prompt

Fix the failing GitHub Actions workflow agent
Analyze the workflow logs, identify the root cause of the failure, and implement a fix.
