IMPORT_FAILED

HTTP 500

The deployment is unable to serve this right now

The snapshot import could not be parsed, validated, merged, or serialized by the isolated import worker.

How to fix it (contract guidance)

Stop and inspect storage integrity and worker resource limits before retrying.

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

The same facts, structured. Do not infer the fix from the prose above — use this.
