Skill-test run tokens cannot create issues.

Error message

Skill-test run tokens cannot create issues.

What it means

403 guard on POST /companies/:companyId/issues. Fires when the actor is a skill-test-scoped agent (a test-harness run identity); such tokens are barred from creating real issues to keep test runs from polluting the board.

Solutions

1. This is an authorization rule, not a bug: perform the action with an actor that satisfies the stated constraint (board user, the owning agent, or an in-scope resource).
2. If access should be allowed, verify the actor's credentials/company scope and the resource's ownership before retrying.
