CIRCLE_OIDC_TOKEN_V2 not found in environment

Error message

CIRCLE_OIDC_TOKEN_V2 not found in environment

What it means

OIDC resolution failure for the 'circleci' provider (v2 path): the CIRCLE_OIDC_TOKEN_V2 environment variable is absent, so the newer CircleCI OIDC token format cannot be read and the secret lookup fails.
