Stupid me. Did I damage it?

I was installing my front wheel on my Canyon Ultimate today and I forgot to put in the DT Swiss cap on since I couldn’t get the glued on piece off so I didn’t think the cap was needed

I tried putting on the wheel and the through axle scratched the right inside of the fork right above the drop out.

There was some white silver paint that seemed to come up. I forgot to take a photo of it before I put some matte paint on it.

Any way I damaged the carbon?

Not sure what this means, but your fork looks OK.
