[aw] SqlClient Issue Auto-Triage reported incomplete result #4692
Description
Workflow Failure
Workflow: SqlClient Issue Auto-Triage
Branch: main
Run: https://github.com/dotnet/SqlClient/actions/runs/34991102115
Warning
Task Could Not Be Completed: The agent reported that the task could not be performed due to an infrastructure or tool failure.
Reasons:
-
Consumed the single add_comment quota on a diagnostic test call before posting the real triage summary for issue Early cancellation of a table-lock-blocked INSERT can remain pending until holder release #4691
While debugging jq/shell tooling issues in the sandbox, I made a test call to add_comment with placeholder text ('test comment') to verify the tool signature. This consumed the run's only allowed add_comment call (limit 1 per run), so the intended full triage summary for issue Early cancellation of a table-lock-blocked INSERT can remain pending until holder release #4691 (Bug, Area\Async, environment complete, potential relation to Async cancellation sends no attention signal once the server has flushed an info message (RAISERROR ... WITH NOWAIT) #4424) could not be posted. The test comment with temporary_id aw_6wsNYEMZ was created in error and should be disregarded/deleted if possible. No label changes were made. A fresh workflow run (e.g. via /triage) is needed to post the actual triage summary.
This is a structured incompletion signal (report_incomplete), not a real task outcome. Any other safe outputs emitted alongside this signal (e.g., comments) describe the failure state, not a completed review or action.

This issue was auto-created by the
SqlClient Issue Auto-Triageagentic workflow after it reported an incomplete result on run 34991102115: while triaging issue #4691, the agent burned its single allowedadd_commentcall on a diagnostic/test invocation ("test comment") instead of posting the real triage summary, so the actual triage for #4691 was never posted. This is a workflow-tooling defect (safe-output quota misuse during debugging), not a SqlClient product bug — it affects the reliability of the auto-triage automation rather than the SqlClient library. Severity: P2 (impacts triage automation reliability, no user-facing product impact).Next Steps

The workflow defect reported here is addressed by PR #4706
The agent's JSON comment preparation was blocked because
jqwas not allowed. While troubleshooting, it submitted a real test comment on #4691, consuming the one-comment quota before it could submit its triage summary.#4706 allows the required JSON preparation tool, documents a single final-only submission path, and adds validation before publication to reject placeholders and incomplete summaries. It preserves the one-comment limit and failure reporting.
The PR is still open, so the repair is not yet active on
main. #4693 is an overlapping earlier repair; consolidate that work with #4706 rather than merging both independently.After deployment, verify a complete replacement summary on #4691 and only then remove the confirmed placeholder. This tracker remains open pending verification; the triage summary posted on this tracker itself is not recovery of the original affected issue.
