ci: move continue-on-error from job level to step level#2723
Merged
Conversation
Job-level continue-on-error only prevents workflow failure but the job itself still reports as failed, which blocks PRs when the job is a required status check. Moving it to the step level makes the job conclude as success while still surfacing failures in the step output. Also re-enables detect-breaking-changes (was disabled with if: false) with step-level soft-fail so it runs but does not block. Refs: APIX-852
