create_branch currently forwards the compact 422 dump, which hides ruleset details the GitHub UI already shows. Unwrap ErrorResponse so agents can see each validation message and recover.
Limit structured formatting to HTTP 422 responses, sanitize allowlisted validation fields, and omit request, response, and documentation metadata while preserving other error contracts. Refs github#3080 Co-authored-by: Copilot App <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>
