agent auth token expired mid meeting prep run while querying Salesforce opportunities

TL;DR

Fix this in meeting prep agent with Salesforce by acting on the exact message first: refresh the Salesforce credential before the opportunity query phase and again on any session fault, persist the opportunities already fetched to the run file, and resume the brief from the first unfetched account instead of restarting the whole prep run. Do not rerun the whole job unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one item, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the counts.

Use this when

• The operation in meeting prep agent with Salesforce fails with this exact message: agent auth token expired mid meeting prep run while querying Salesforce opportunities.
• The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
• A call, review or send is blocked until this item completes.

Not for this skill when

• The message is a permission or outage notice from the platform. Resolve that first, then return here if this error remains.
• The operation completes and you only disagree with its output. That is a quality review, not this failure.

Steps

1. Reproduce the failure with the smallest scope that still shows it in meeting prep agent with Salesforce, and copy the full message plus the account, contact or meeting involved into the run notes. Verify: the error is reproduced on demand with a named item, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this error: refresh the Salesforce credential before the opportunity query phase and again on any session fault, persist the opportunities already fetched to the run file, and resume the brief from the first unfetched account instead of restarting the whole prep run. Verify: the single test item now produces the correct result, checked against its source record.
3. Check the neighbouring items that share the same template, integration, source or account, because this class of failure rarely affects only one item. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Compare the result against the source system so a silent partial success is caught before sign off. Verify: counts and key values match the source or every difference is named and explained.
5. Rerun the original operation in meeting prep agent with Salesforce on the previously failing scope, watching for the same message rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original message does not appear.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the item so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the error, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

Why it happens

Long prep runs outlive a short Salesforce session, and with fetched opportunities held only in memory the expiry mid run discards finished work along with the session.
