Description
LintMonster's 2026-08-03 daily run found 670 largefunc findings and tried to refresh the authoritative function-length tracker (#49251), but the attempt failed with: update_issue requires an issue context ... use create_discussion or create_issue instead. The workflow's safe-output config doesn't currently permit update_issue when the run isn't triggered by an issue event (it's a schedule-triggered run), so it can only publish a discussion report instead of keeping the tracker current.
Expected Impact
Lets LintMonster keep the authoritative function-length backlog issue (#49251) up to date automatically instead of only posting disconnected daily discussions, reducing manual maintainer effort to reconcile the two.
Suggested Agent
Existing maintainer / LintMonster workflow owner (safe-output config change)
Estimated Effort
Quick (< 1 hour) — likely a lockfile/frontmatter permission addition (update-issue safe-output with an explicit target issue number) plus recompile.
