ADMIN_ACTOR_UNRESOLVED

HTTP 403

Something about the request must change

An audited admin mutation could not resolve the acting admin's email, so the write was refused before it happened.

How to fix it (contract guidance)

Re-authenticate as an allowlisted admin; do not retry unauthenticated.

Observed recovery

Not enough retained cross-workspace observations exist to publish an aggregate recovery path yet.

Publication requires at least 3 distinct workspaces. This is withheld data, not evidence that no recovery happened.

If you are an agent
