Problem
The daily-upstream-check routine ran successfully on 2026-08-09 (first run, baseline established) but could not commit or push the results (docs/upstream-log/state.json, docs/upstream-log/2026-08.md) because the remote session lacks GitHub write access.
What was attempted
git push -u origin chore/routines-daily-2026-08-09 → 403 (no push credentials configured in the session)
mcp__github__create_branch → 403 Resource not accessible by integration
mcp__github__push_files → 403 Resource not accessible by integration
Root cause
The scheduled Claude Code session has read-only access to the repo. Neither the HTTPS git credentials nor the GitHub MCP integration token have the contents: write permission required to create branches and push files.
What was completed
8 of 15 upstream sources were fetched and checked successfully:

Fix needed
To make the routine work end-to-end:
- Git push credentials: Grant the scheduled session
contents: write on this repo (via a GitHub App permission or a GITHUB_TOKEN env var with write scope).
- Egress allowlist: Allow outbound access to
cursor.com, marketplace.visualstudio.com, and windsurf.com.
- GitHub API access: Either add a read-only GitHub PAT to the session environment, or expand the MCP session scope to include
zed-industries/zed, modelcontextprotocol/specification, and anthropics/claude-plugins-official.
Since this is the first run, there is no stale state — once write access is granted, re-running the routine will create the state.json baseline correctly.
