Notable PRs

Issues ⚠️

• #17260, #17256, #17241: Three consecutive PRs for the same "GitHub App token not overriding custom token" issue — all closed without merging. Likely retry behavior on a failing task.

Open PRs ⏳

• #17267: Fix aw.patch download path in push-failure fallback
• #17245: Enable --enable-api-proxy flag for Gemini engine
• #17206: Fix push_to_pull_request_branch bad patch on issue_comment runs

Key Insights

• Duplicate PR retry pattern: The GitHub App token bug (Fix GitHub App token not overriding custom token in Copilot engine #17241, Fix GitHub App token not overriding custom token in Copilot engine execution #17256, fix: GitHub App token not overriding custom token in Copilot engine execution step #17260) triggered 3 agent attempts — all closed. Consider whether the task loop should throttle after repeated failures on the same issue.
• Productivity high: 61 PRs in 24 hours is the highest single-day volume in the 4-day window, despite a lower success rate — the agent is handling a high workload with reasonable throughput.
