chore(routines): daily-upstream-check cannot push — GitHub token lacks write access

[NativeTeachingAidsB]

Problem

The daily-upstream-check routine ran on 2026-08-10 but could not push its results to the repository.

Both git push (HTTPS) and the GitHub MCP push_files / create_branch tools returned 403 "Resource not accessible by integration" when attempting to create branch chore/routines-daily-2026-08-10.

This is an organization policy denial (not a network/TLS issue). The GitHub token attached to this Claude Code cloud session does not have contents:write or branches:create permission on opencircuitdev/codetalker.

What the run found (first-run baseline)

The run completed its upstream checks. 7 of 15 sources were fetched successfully (this was the first run, so no version changes to report — only baseline recording). 8 sources had fetch failures due to egress policy or GitHub MCP scope restrictions.

Successfully recorded:

Source key	Version
claude-code-cli	2.1.226
claude-agent-sdk	0.3.226
claude-agent-sdk-py	0.2.134
aider	0.86.2
goose	0.1.0
mcp-python	2.0.0
mcp-ts	1.30.0

Fetch failures (separate from the push issue):

• codex-cli — npm registry response exceeded content size limit
• cursor — egress blocked (cursor.com)
• cline — egress blocked (marketplace.visualstudio.com)
• continue — egress blocked (marketplace.visualstudio.com)
• windsurf — egress blocked (windsurf.com)
• zed — GitHub API 403 (MCP session scoped to opencircuitdev/codetalker only)
• mcp-spec — GitHub API 403 (MCP session scoped to opencircuitdev/codetalker only)
• claude-plugins-official — GitHub API 403 (MCP session scoped to opencircuitdev/codetalker only)

Required action

1. Push blocker: Grant the Claude Code cloud session's GitHub token contents:write permission on this repository, or configure the routine's GitHub integration with appropriate write access.
2. Fetch failures (egress): Update the egress allowlist to permit cursor.com, marketplace.visualstudio.com, windsurf.com — or update the routine spec to use alternative endpoints for those sources.
3. Fetch failures (GitHub scope): Expand the GitHub MCP session scope beyond opencircuitdev/codetalker to allow reading releases/commits from zed-industries/zed, modelcontextprotocol/specification, and anthropics/claude-plugins-official.

The committed files (state.json + 2026-08.md) were prepared locally but could not be pushed.
