fix: explicit sparse-checkout cone mode for .github/.agents to fix runtime-import on nested paths by Copilot · Pull Request #18973 · github/gh-aw

Copilot · 2026-03-01T03:53:30Z

runtime-import fails for paths like .github/workflows/shared/reporting.md because the sparse checkout step omitted sparse-checkout-cone-mode: true. Without it, git's non-cone mode interprets .github as a literal name match, not a recursive directory cone—so subdirectories like .github/workflows/shared/ are never checked out and the file isn't found at runtime.

Changes

Explicit cone mode on .github/.agents checkout steps (compiler_activation_jobs.go, compiler_yaml_helpers.go): adds sparse-checkout-cone-mode: true so git always recursively includes all content under .github/ regardless of the actions/checkout version's default.
Clearer error message (runtime_import.cjs): the "file not found" error now shows the absolute path being searched (e.g. /home/runner/work/repo/.github/workflows/shared/reporting.md) instead of the stripped relative path (workflows/shared/reporting.md), which was misleading users into thinking the resolver was looking in the wrong directory.
Regression test: added a JS test covering the exact failing case—.github/workflows/shared/reporting.md resolving correctly through processRuntimeImport.
162 lock files + wasm golden files regenerated to include sparse-checkout-cone-mode: true.

Original prompt

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>runtime-import fails for .github/workflows/* paths (resolved as workflows/*)</issue_title>
<issue_description>### Summary

runtime-import fails when importing files from .github/workflows/..., even though the file exists in the checked out repository.

It appears the resolver rewrites or strips the .github path segment and then looks for workflows/..., which does not exist.

It looks like the issue-triage-agent is having the same issue currently in this repo

Reproduction

Create a workflow markdown with:
imports:
  - shared/reporting.md
Compile with gh aw compile (v0.50.5), resulting lock file includes:
{{#runtime-import .github/workflows/shared/reporting.md}}
Run the generated workflow in GitHub Actions.

Actual Result

Interpolation fails with:
ERR_API: Failed to process runtime import for .github/workflows/shared/reporting.md:
ERR_SYSTEM: Runtime import file not found: workflows/shared/reporting.md
Expected Result

runtime-import should resolve .github/workflows/shared/reporting.md exactly as written (or produce a clear validation error during compile if that path is unsupported).

Environment

gh aw version: v0.50.5

Runner: ubuntu-latest

Repo is checked out at ${{ github.workspace }}

File exists at .github/workflows/shared/reporting.md in the default branch and in checkout

Notes

Workaround is to avoid runtime imports from .github/... and inline content, but this causes duplication.

Pull request overview

Ensures runtime imports can resolve nested paths under .github/ by forcing sparse-checkout cone mode in generated workflows, and improves runtime-import diagnostics with absolute-path reporting.

Changes:

Emit sparse-checkout-cone-mode: true for .github / .agents sparse checkouts in both main and activation job generators.
Update runtime-import missing-file errors/warnings to report the resolved absolute path.
Add a regression test covering .github/workflows/shared/... imports, and regenerate lock/wasm golden fixtures accordingly.

pkg/workflow/compiler_yaml_helpers.go


 	// For all modes (dev, script, release), checkout .github and .agents folders
 	// This works in release mode where actions aren't checked out
+	// sparse-checkout-cone-mode: true ensures subdirectories under .github/ are recursively included


The added comment mentions only .github/ recursion, but this checkout step also includes .agents in sparse-checkout, and cone mode affects both. Consider updating the comment to explicitly mention both .github/ and .agents/ to avoid misleading future readers.

pkg/workflow/compiler_activation_jobs.go


 	// For activation job, always add sparse checkout of .github and .agents folders
 	// This is needed for runtime imports during prompt generation
+	// sparse-checkout-cone-mode: true ensures subdirectories under .github/ are recursively included


The new comment calls out recursive inclusion for .github/, but this sparse checkout step also includes .agents. Since cone mode applies to both entries, it would be clearer to mention .agents/ recursion as well.
