   We are investigating failures cloning GitHub-hosted Terraform modules and sources over SSH, caused by an ongoing upstream GitHub incident affecting SSH deploy keys. Runs using `git::ssh://` or `[email protected]:` sources may fail with Permission denied (publickey); HTTPS and registry-based sources are unaffected. We're tracking GitHub's remediation and will update as we learn more.
