Context access might be invalidCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Context access might be invalid: AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID (editor warning for secrets/vars)

The GitHub Actions editor or extension flags a `secrets.X` or `vars.X` reference that is not defined in the repository — usually…

Cache not found / Unable to reserve cacheCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Cache not found for input keys: npm-Linux-abc123 / Failed to save: Unable to reserve cache with key, another job may be creating this cache

GitHub Actions: fatal: couldn't find remote ref refs/heads/feature — The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 1 (actions/checkout)

`actions/checkout` could not fetch the branch, tag or SHA it was asked for — it was deleted, never pushed, or is not reachable wi…

error parsing called workflowCI/CD

GitHub Actions: error parsing called workflow ".github/workflows/ci.yml" -> "org/repo/.github/workflows/build.yml@main": workflow was not found

A job calls a reusable workflow (`uses: org/repo/.github/workflows/x.yml@ref`) that GitHub cannot find or is not allowed to use.

Credentials could not be loadedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Credentials could not be loaded, please check your action inputs: Could not load credentials from any providers

`download-artifact` could not find an artifact with that name in the run (or repository) — it was never uploaded, named different…

Could not find credentials entryCI/CD

Jenkins: ERROR: Could not find credentials entry with ID 'github-token'

The Jenkinsfile references a credentials ID that does not exist in the scope Jenkins can see for this job.

API rate limit exceededCI/CD

GitHub Actions: HttpError: API rate limit exceeded for installation ID 123456 / secondary rate limit

Your workflow (or an action it uses) made too many GitHub API calls and was throttled with 403/429.

Two steps away (25)

Resource not accessible by integrationCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Resource not accessible by integration (403)

The workflow’s GITHUB_TOKEN doesn’t have the permission needed for that API call (comment, push, create release, write packages).

workflow not triggeringCI/CD

GitHub Actions: workflow does not run on push / pull_request / workflow_dispatch button missing

A workflow file exists but no run appears — the trigger filters do not match, the file is not on the right branch, or the workflo…

Unable to get ACTIONS_ID_TOKEN_REQUEST_URLCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Unable to get ACTIONS_ID_TOKEN_REQUEST_URL env variable

A step tried to get an OIDC token (for AWS, Azure, GCP, Vault) but the job was not granted `id-token: write` permission.

Unrecognized named-valueCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Unrecognized named-value: 'secrets'. Located at position 1 within expression: secrets.API_KEY

You used an expression context (`secrets`, `env`, `matrix`, `steps`…) in a place of the workflow where that context is not availa…

deprecated version of actions/upload-artifactCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: This request has been automatically failed because it uses a deprecated version of `actions/upload-artifact: v3`

Since January 2025 the v3 artifact actions no longer work — upload and download steps fail until you move to v4.

npm ci out of syncnpm

npm ERR! `npm ci` can only install packages when your package.json and package-lock.json are in sync

package-lock.json doesn’t match package.json, so npm ci refuses to install.

Node.js 16 actions are deprecatedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Node.js 16 actions are deprecated. Please update the following actions to use Node.js 20: actions/checkout@v3

A warning that actions in your workflow still run on an old Node.js runtime; update them to current major versions.

set-output command is deprecatedCI/CD

GitHub Actions: The `set-output` command is deprecated and will be disabled soon. Please upgrade to using Environment Files

Workflows (or old actions) still use `::set-output`, which must be replaced by writing to the `$GITHUB_OUTPUT` file.

The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128

A git command inside the workflow failed — usually authentication to a private repo/submodule, a missing ref, or pushing without…

Process completed with exit code 1CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Process completed with exit code 1.

A `run:` command returned a non-zero status, so the step (and job) failed — the real cause is printed in the log lines above.

Invalid workflow fileCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Invalid workflow file: .github/workflows/ci.yml#L12 — You have an error in your yaml syntax on line 12

GitHub could not parse your workflow YAML, so no run was created — usually indentation, a tab, or an unquoted special character.

Cannot find orbCI/CD

CircleCI: Cannot find orb 'circleci/node@9.9.9'. Check the namespace and version exist

The orb reference in your config does not resolve: wrong namespace, name or version, or the orb is private and not accessible.

Template file not foundCI/CD

Azure Pipelines: /azure-pipelines.yml: File /templates/build.yml not found in repository / Unable to find template

The YAML references a template (`template: templates/build.yml`) that Azure cannot find — wrong path, repo resource or branch.

sts:AssumeRole deniedAWS

is not authorized to perform: sts:AssumeRole on resource: arn:aws:iam::...:role/...

The caller can’t assume the role — either its own policy doesn’t allow sts:AssumeRole, or the role’s trust policy doesn’t trust t…

The set-env command is disabledCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Unable to process command '::set-env name=X::y' successfully. The `set-env` command is disabled

A script or old action uses `::set-env` / `::add-path`, which GitHub disabled; write to `$GITHUB_ENV` and `$GITHUB_PATH` instead.

Unable to process file commandCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Unable to process file command 'output' successfully. Invalid format 'x'

A line written to `$GITHUB_OUTPUT`, `$GITHUB_ENV` or `$GITHUB_STATE` is not in `name=value` form — usually a multi-line value wit…

Process completed with exit code 127CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Process completed with exit code 127 — command not found

The shell could not find the command you tried to run: it is not installed on the runner, not on PATH, or misspelled.

Process completed with exit code 137CI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Process completed with exit code 137 (Killed — out of memory)

The command was killed by the system with SIGKILL (128 + 9), almost always because the runner ran out of memory.

The runner has received a shutdown signalCI/CD

GitHub Actions: The runner has received a shutdown signal. This can happen when the runner service is stopped, or a manually started runner is canceled

The machine running your job was shut down or reclaimed while the job was running — a self-hosted runner stopped, a spot instance…

Cannot perform an interactive login from a non TTY deviceCI/CD

GitHub Actions: Error: Cannot perform an interactive login from a non TTY device

`docker login` asked for a password interactively, but CI has no terminal — pass credentials non-interactively.

Waiting for next available executorCI/CD

Jenkins: Still waiting to schedule task — Waiting for next available executor / 'agent1' is offline

A Jenkins build is queued because no executor with the required label is free or the agent is offline.

Scripts not permitted to use methodCI/CD

Jenkins: org.jenkinsci.plugins.scriptsecurity.sandbox.RejectedAccessException: Scripts not permitted to use method java.lang.String toUpperCase

A sandboxed Pipeline script called a method that has not been approved in Script Security.

concurrent_requests_limitAPI

API Error: Too many concurrent requests (concurrency limit reached)

You have more requests in flight at once than the API allows for your key — even if your requests-per-minute rate is fine.

No space left on device (runner)CI/CD

GitHub Actions: System.IO.IOException: No space left on device — the runner's disk is full

The job filled the runner's disk (about 14 GB free on standard Linux runners): large Docker images, caches, build outputs or test…

GitHub Actions: Waiting for a runner to pick up this job… (job stays queued — No runner matching the specified labels)

The job is queued and never starts — no available runner has all the labels in `runs-on`, runners are offline/busy, or the hosted…
