[!WARNING]
Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)
I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:
gh.io
- Triggering command:
/home/REDACTED/work/_temp/ghcca-node/node/bin/node /home/REDACTED/work/_temp/ghcca-node/node/bin/node --enable-source-maps /home/REDACTED/work/_temp/copilot-developer-action-main/dist/index.js(dns block)If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:
- Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
- Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)
