Avoid blocked /meta lookup in Issue Arborist issue prefetch

[Copilot]

Issue Arborist was failing before the agent ran because its issue prefetch path used gh issue list, which triggered a proxied GET /meta request and received 403 Forbidden. This updates the workflow to fetch the same issue dataset without relying on that blocked CLI metadata path.

• Workflow prefetch path

  • Replaced the gh issue list prefetch step in issue-arborist.md with a direct gh api graphql query.
  • Kept the output contract unchanged: the workflow still writes the issue list to /tmp/gh-aw/issues-data/issues.json for the agent prompt.

• Compiled workflow

  • Regenerated issue-arborist.lock.yml from the markdown source so the checked-in workflow reflects the new fetch path.

• Behavior preserved

  • The downloaded payload still includes the fields the agent relies on: issue number, title, author, timestamps, URL, body, labels, milestone, and assignees.
  • The query still scopes to open issues in microsoft/aspire.dev excluding issues that already have a parent.

gh api graphql \
  -f query="$query" \
  -F searchQuery="repo:${GITHUB_REPOSITORY} is:issue state:open -parent-issue:*" \
  | jq '.data.search.nodes' \
  > /tmp/gh-aw/issues-data/issues.json
