You attempted to modify a secret, but the latest version of your Worker isn't currently deployed.' ## Body Cause (Documented platform behavior): `wrangler secret put` deploys a new version with the secret; Wrangler refuses when the latest version is undeployed to avoid accidentally deploying it. Fix status: documented_behavior Other error fragments: - This limitation exists to prevent accidental deployment when using Worker versions and secrets together. Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/f96458cefb7eaffc611f38f59f41d573dfa8b112/packages/wrangler/src/secret/index.ts (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): On APIError VERSION_NOT_DEPLOYED_ERR_CODE Wrangler throws the 'Secret edit failed...' UserError listing two options: `wrangler versions secret put`, or deploy the latest version first.
