[aw] Issue Monster failed to assign agent #60666

Workflow Failure

Workflow: Issue Monster
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/github/gh-aw/actions/runs/34774408751

Assignment Errors:

• Issue 🔍 Multi-Device Docs Testing Report - 2026-09-12 #60377 (agent: copilot): Bad credentials - https://docs.github.com/rest
• Issue [refactor] pkg/testutil: split tempdir.go - CaptureStderr and StripYAMLCommentHeader dont belong #60544 (agent: copilot): Bad credentials - https://docs.github.com/rest
• Issue [vulnhunter] VulnHunter findings in github/gh-aw #59381 (agent: copilot): Bad credentials - https://docs.github.com/rest

To resolve this, verify the token and Copilot assignment configuration:

• Set GH_AW_AGENT_TOKEN to a fine-grained PAT with metadata: read and actions, contents, issues, and pull requests: write, or use a classic PAT with repo
• Do not use a GitHub App installation token for Copilot assignment; the API rejects it
• Ensure the token owner can access the repository and assign users to issues
• Verify Copilot coding agent is enabled for this repository and organization policy allows bot assignments
• Docs: https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/copilot-cloud-agent/#authentication
• API reference: https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/use-copilot-agents/cloud-agent/use-cloud-agent-via-the-api#using-the-issues-api
