[deep-report] Investigate list_issues integrity-policy redaction hiding one issue every day for 5 consecutive days #57443

Description

@github-actions

Description: GitHub MCP Structural Analysis (discussion #57431) reports that the list_issues GitHub MCP tool has had one issue redacted by an integrity policy on every single measured day for 5 consecutive days (2026-08-25 through 2026-08-31), with zero visible content for the agent to reason about in place of the redacted item. This is the lowest-rated tool in the analysis (2/5) specifically because of this recurring blind spot.

Expected Impact: A silent, unexplained redaction that recurs daily suggests either a misconfigured integrity/content-safety policy, or a specific issue/pattern that's being permanently and incorrectly flagged. Agents relying on list_issues are missing an item every day without any indication of why — worth root-causing whether this is a real integrity concern or a false-positive filter, and whether a placeholder/explanation should be surfaced instead of silent omission.

Suggested Agent: New investigation (GitHub MCP tooling)

Estimated Effort: Quick (< 1 hour) to identify the redacted issue and cause; Medium if a policy/tooling fix is needed

Warning

Firewall blocked 2 domains

The following domains were blocked by the firewall during workflow execution:

  • api.anthropic.com
  • api.github.com

[!TIP]
api.github.com is blocked because GitHub API access uses the built-in GitHub tools by default. Instead of adding api.github.com to network.allowed, use tools.github.mode: gh-proxy for direct pre-authenticated GitHub CLI access without requiring network access to api.github.com:

tools:
  github:
    mode: gh-proxy

See GitHub Tools for more information on gh-proxy mode.

To allow these domains, add them to the network.allowed list in your workflow frontmatter:

network:
  allowed:
    - defaults
    - "api.anthropic.com"
    - "api.github.com"

See Network Configuration for more information.
