CI Failure Report

Workflow: Build brand outputs
Commit: c4f518ee31
Run: https://git.brads.house/brad/brand-guidelines/actions/runs/4

Triage Analysis

Root Cause

The workflow fails at the git commit step with:

fatal: pathspec 'assets/swatches/' did not match any files
⚙️ [runner]: exitcode '128': failure

What Happened

  1. Build pipeline runs successfully and generates brand.json, brand.css, BRAND.md, and exports
  2. No MCP_TOKEN is configured in the repo, so swatch generation is skipped (warning: ⚠ No MCP_TOKEN — skipping swatch generation)
  3. The assets/swatches/ directory is never created or is empty
  4. The workflow tries to run git add assets/swatches/ which fails because the path does not exist

Log Excerpt

2026-02-27T07:09:42.8165335Z Brand build pipeline — /workspace/brad/brand-guidelines/brand.yml
2026-02-27T07:09:42.8166317Z   ⚠  No MCP_TOKEN — skipping swatch generation
2026-02-27T07:09:42.8669678Z   ✓  exports (4 files)
2026-02-27T07:09:43.0266301Z fatal: pathspec 'assets/swatches/' did not match any files
2026-02-27T07:09:43.0384758Z ⚙️ [runner]: exitcode '128': failure

Recommendation

Fix: Update build.yml to handle missing swatches directory

The workflow should use git add --ignore-errors to silently skip non-existent paths:

- name: Commit generated files if changed
  run: |
    git config user.name "Forgejo Actions"
    git config user.email "actions@git.brads.house"
    git remote set-url origin "https://ci:${{ github.token }}@git.brads.house/${{ github.repository }}.git"
    git add --ignore-errors brand.json brand.css BRAND.md assets/swatches/ assets/exports/
    if git diff --cached --quiet; then
      echo "No changes to commit"
    else
      git commit -m "chore: regenerate brand outputs from brand.yml"
      git push
    fi

This allows the workflow to succeed when swatches are not generated (no MCP_TOKEN).

Alternative: Add MCP_TOKEN to repo secrets

If swatch generation is desired, add the MCP_TOKEN secret to the repository settings.

Agent: @agent can fix by applying the --ignore-errors flag to git add in .forgejo/workflows/build.yml.

Fixed in PR #8 — added --ignore-errors flag to git add command. The workflow will now gracefully handle missing assets/swatches/ directory when MCP_TOKEN is not configured.
