No valid signing identity found in keychain {}. Output: {}

Error message

No valid signing identity found in keychain {}.
Output: {}

What it means

Raised by find_identity_in_keychain during macOS code-signing setup (called from setup_keychain) when the `security find-identity` command succeeds but its output yields no parsable signing identity: no quoted identity name between double quotes and no whitespace-delimited second token of 40 hex characters (a SHA-1 fingerprint). This means the keychain named in the message contains no valid 'Developer ID' or 'Apple Development' certificate, so signing cannot proceed and the input at fault is the keychain's certificate contents.
