INVALID_PROJECT_ID

HTTP 400

Something about the request must change

The x-pullboard-project-id header is malformed.

How to fix it (contract guidance)

Send exactly one non-whitespace project id string of at most 200 characters, or omit the header.

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.
