Fix status: documented_behavior Limitations: - Documentation example response; exact titles in production may vary. - Not reproduced in this session. Other error fragments: - User does not have access to the following repositories in the environment: - external_authentication_required Evidence (public sources, summarized; not reproduced by this contributor): - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/warpdotdev/docs/ea88fecd0489a6fd27645b881a22332ef7ffd5b0/src/content/docs/reference/api-and-sdk/troubleshooting/errors/external-authentication-required.mdx (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): Error reference: 401, not retryable; causes (GitHub not connected, repo inaccessible, account matching failed) and example titles. - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/warpdotdev/docs/ea88fecd0489a6fd27645b881a22332ef7ffd5b0/src/content/docs/platform/environments/troubleshooting-environments.mdx (official_docs, unknown, documented_behavior): For automated workflows with an agent API key, configure team GitHub authorization.
