Error message

The issue for this tool action is closed; the approval has expired

What it means

Post-claim recheck in approved-action execution: the issue tied to the invocation is done or cancelled (or missing), so the claimed approval is expired and marked as such. This closes the race where a claim committed just before terminal-issue expiry revocation, ensuring governed side effects never run for closed issues.

Solutions

1. The issue was closed, expiring the approval. Reopen/use another issue and request a new approval.
