agent: mcp
When does this happen?
IF create_or_update_file fails with error 'content.encoding: Required' when content is provided as a simple string instead of an object with encoding and base64-encoded payload.
How others solved it
THEN Modify the function schema to accept content as an object with fields 'encoding' (e.g., 'base64') and 'content' (base64-encoded string), and ensure the implementation encodes the file content in base64 before sending to GitHub API.
{
"content": {
"encoding": "base64",
"content": "base64_encoded_string"
}
