list issue pull requests: %w

Error message

list issue pull requests: %w

What it means

The issue reference resolved fine, but the GET to /api/issues/{id}/pull-requests failed. The ID is URL-path-escaped before the call, so malformed IDs are not the cause; the failure is transport, auth, or an HTTP error status from the server on this specific sub-resource.

Solutions

1. Read the wrapped error for the HTTP status and response body.
2. 401/403 → re-authenticate / verify the token's scope.
3. 5xx or connection errors → verify server health and retry once it's up.
4. Confirm the same ref works with `multica issue get <ref>`; if get succeeds but this fails, it's endpoint-specific (permissions or server bug) — report with the issue ID.

# retry only transport/5xx failures; surface 4xx immediately
 for i in 1 2 3; do
   out=$(multica issue pull-requests "$REF" 2>&1) && break
   case "$out" in *401*|*403*|*404*) echo "$out" >&2; exit 1;; esac
   sleep $((i*2))
 done
 echo "$out"

When it happens

Trigger: Running `multica issue pull-requests <valid-ref>` when the server is unreachable, the token is expired (401), the user lacks permission to read the issue's PRs (403), or the server returns 5xx on this endpoint.

Common situations: Dev server restarted mid-script; token expiry during a long-running batch; permission scope changes on private repos linked to the issue.
