Add workflow ID and run URL to agent failure template prompt by Copilot · Pull Request #14793 · github/gh-aw

Copilot · 2026-02-10T15:08:01Z

Failure issues now include a pre-filled command with the specific workflow ID and run URL for debugging.

Changes

Go: Pass GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID environment variable (derived from workflow filename) to agent failure handler (pkg/workflow/notify_comment.go)
Template: Update prompt from generic instruction to specific command with {workflow_id} and {run_url} placeholders (actions/setup/md/agent_failure_issue.md)
JavaScript: Pass workflow ID and run URL directly to template context (actions/setup/js/handle_agent_failure.cjs)
Tests: Verify new command format appears in generated issues

Example

Before:

/agent agentic-workflows

When prompted, instruct the agent to debug this workflow failure.

After:

/agent agentic-workflows debug the agentic workflow archie failure in https://github.com/owner/repo/actions/runs/123456

The command now includes the actual workflow ID derived from the markdown filename (e.g., archie, ai-moderator) and the full run URL for direct debugging access, eliminating manual lookup.

 	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, buildWorkflowMetadataEnvVarsWithTrackerID(data.Name, data.Source, data.TrackerID)...)
 	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, "          GH_AW_RUN_URL: ${{ github.server_url }}/${{ github.repository }}/actions/runs/${{ github.run_id }}\n")
 	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, fmt.Sprintf("          GH_AW_AGENT_CONCLUSION: ${{ needs.%s.result }}\n", mainJobName))
+	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, fmt.Sprintf("          GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID: %q\n", mainJobName))


@copilot this should be the agentic workflow id, not the main job name.

Changed to use data.WorkflowID (the workflow filename like "archie", "ai-moderator") instead of mainJobName (the job name "agent"). The workflow ID is now correctly derived from the markdown filename. (commit 611d937)

Pull request overview

This PR updates the agent-failure issue template so newly created failure issues include a pre-filled /agent command that embeds the workflow ID and the specific Actions run URL, making debugging more direct.

Changes:

Add GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID to the conclusion job’s agent-failure handler environment (Go compiler output).
Update the failure issue prompt template to include {workflow_id} and {run_url} in the /agent command.
Extend the JS failure handler + tests to pass/render the new template variables.

 	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, buildWorkflowMetadataEnvVarsWithTrackerID(data.Name, data.Source, data.TrackerID)...)
 	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, "          GH_AW_RUN_URL: ${{ github.server_url }}/${{ github.repository }}/actions/runs/${{ github.run_id }}\n")

+	agentFailureEnvVars = append(agentFailureEnvVars, fmt.Sprintf("          GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID: %q\n", data.WorkflowID))



GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID is populated from data.WorkflowID, but the generated *.lock.yml files in this PR show it being set to "agent" (the job name) instead of the workflow ID derived from the markdown filename (e.g. "workflow-normalizer", "ai-moderator"). This causes the failure issue template to include the wrong workflow ID. Consider deriving the workflow ID from the markdownPath (like buildConsolidatedSafeOutputsJob does via GetWorkflowIDFromPath(markdownPath)) and passing it into buildConclusionJob, and then regenerate the lockfiles so the env var matches the workflow's markdown basename.

    const workflowName = process.env.GH_AW_WORKFLOW_NAME || "unknown";

    const agentConclusion = process.env.GH_AW_AGENT_CONCLUSION || "";
    const runUrl = process.env.GH_AW_RUN_URL || "";


Variable name workflowID is inconsistent with the repository’s existing camelCase usage for IDs (e.g., workflowId in other scripts like create_pull_request/add_comment). Renaming to workflowId would improve consistency and readability (and avoid mixing initialisms in local variables).

          GH_AW_CHECKOUT_PR_SUCCESS: ${{ needs.agent.outputs.checkout_pr_success }}
        with:


This workflow sets GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID to "agent" in the Handle Agent Failure step env, which will make the generated failure issue use the wrong workflow ID in the debug command. It should match the workflow markdown basename ("workflow-normalizer") like the safe_outputs job-level GH_AW_WORKFLOW_ID does; regenerate this lockfile after fixing the compiler output for the conclusion job.
