workspace_update_persona: {e}

Error message

workspace_update_persona: {e}

What it means

Writing the updated persona file to the workspace failed at the ops layer; the tool name prefix marks it for the LLM. Arguments were already validated, so this is a workspace IO/permission failure during the write.
