error_code: E-AUTH-008 · status: retired

What you’re seeing

Nothing: npx vendo doctor cannot print this code anymore. You are reading it from an older run’s output, or a saved report.

Why

This warning fired when a configured actAs seam declined doctor’s synthetic test principal. Doctor sends no principal now, so the seam is never asked.

The fix

Nothing to do for the warning itself. It was usually expected: a subject → user resolver that only mints for real users is right to refuse a synthetic subject. What still matters is that the seam accepts your real subjects. Trigger one real away action and read the dev server log. If the decline names a missing secret, set it (AUTH_SECRET, or the preset’s documented variable).
  • E-AUTH-004 — a mint that fails instead of declining, also retired
  • E-AUTH-007 — no seam configured at all, also retired
