Description
What
security-issue-import Step 7 (apply) creates the tracker with a raw gh api / gh issue create, passing the report body as the issue body. With the framework's own magpie-agent-guard installed, that call is refused: the body carries CVE / vulnerability / advisory / security@ terms, which the guard blocks on any gh api command — even against a private tracker repository. So the documented create path is unusable for exactly the content the skill always handles.
The vetted-op issue-create already exists and runs outside the guard (the same way rollup-append does), but the import skill's apply step does not use it.
Repro
Run security-issue-import on a real report in a setup with magpie-agent-guard installed. Step 7's create is refused with:
Apache Magpie Security Guard: Blocked public-surface command (gh api).
Found forbidden security disclosure term(s): `CVE`, `vulnerability`, `advisory`, `security@`.
Observed on an adopter (private tracker repo, agent-guard on) while importing new security@ reports.
Why it matters
The agent-guard is a framework component, so any adopter that installs it hits this. The create is against a private tracker, so confidentiality is not the issue — the guard simply cannot distinguish the private tracker from the public upstream and blocks on the disclosure terms every security report contains. The result is that the first, load-bearing step of the on-ramp skill cannot run through its documented path.
Proposal
- Have
security-issue-importcreate the tracker through the vetted-opissue-createpath (which runs outside the guard, asrollup-appendalready does), instead of rawgh api/gh issue create. - Document that the
security-issue-importcaller needs theissue-createvetted op (alongsiderollup-append) in the caller-grant guidance.
This keeps confidentiality intact (the tracker stays private) while not tripping the guard. security-issue-import-from-pr and -from-md, which also create trackers, likely need the same treatment — worth checking in the same change.

@potiuk , I've submitted a PR addressing this issue.
The fix replaces raw GitHub tracker creation with a policy-scoped vetted operation across all three security import skills, preserving label handling, project-board integration, and non-GitHub compatibility.
Regression tests and repository checks are passing.
Thanks!
