Yes, I tested 12.3 and it also works. We could switch to that and keep 13.0 for later.

I agree your reasoning, but 13.1 was not listed in the list of images on Cirrus-CI [1]. They say they support all Google Compute Engine images, but I could not find a public list of these images ([2] seems to be it but I don't want to create an account just to see a list!).

I think it's actually on your side, as the archive shows this URL on a single line [3]. And when I hit "reply all" in Thunderbird to type this it seems to have put in back in a single line (!)
