Make checks workflow label-driven via run-type output#8524
Merged
Conversation
Replace the fragile 'removal' detection (which inferred removals from a 'Bad data []' parse-error sentinel) with an explicit, label-driven run-type output on the preflight job: - remove-repositories -> removal - New default repository -> new-repository - renamed-repositories -> renamed - no known label -> unknown Fail the preflight if more than one of these labels is set. Only new-repository PRs run the preflight detection steps and the downstream jobs (except editable). Add the labeled trigger so applying a label re-runs the checks.

Pull request overview
This PR updates the checks GitHub Actions workflow to determine what validation to run based on PR labels, replacing the prior “removal” inference logic with an explicit preflight “run type” output and enabling re-runs when labels change.
Changes:
- Add
pull_requesttriggers forlabeled/unlabeledso applying/removing labels re-runs checks. - Introduce a preflight “run type” decision based on mutually-exclusive labels (
remove-repositories,New default repository,renamed-repositories). - Gate the downstream validation jobs so they run only for
new-repositoryPRs (except theeditablejob).
