fix(ci): stop duplicate CodeQL and post-merge suite - #595
Conversation
Drop push-to-develop CI so squash-merges do not pay the suite twice. Skip heavy CI/CodeQL on release back-merges while keeping required check names green. Keep advanced CodeQL as the in-repo source. Co-authored-by: Tomás Maritano <tomymaritano@gmail.com>
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughCI now runs on ChangesCI and release back-merge handling
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The CI workflow may grant the gate job broader token permissions than necessary, and the administrator instructions use inaccurate permission terminology; this creates bounded security and operational follow-up risk, but the PR remains mergeable with owner awareness.

GitHub now returns "Can't disable auto-merge for this pull request" when the mutation is a no-op. Draft PRs were failing disable-automerge because we only grepped for "not enabled". Co-authored-by: Tomás Maritano <tomymaritano@gmail.com>

skip_heavy=true is set only when PR_USER is github-actions[bot] and BASE_REF is
develop; do not trust the chore/backmerge-* branch pattern by itself. Preserve
the existing release-merge predicate and apply the same trusted-PR guard to both
the heavy-job and CodeQL skip paths.

same untrusted branch-prefix bypass skips CodeQL analysis.

Summary
Stops the three verified CI duplications without changing the required-check set or the release path.
.github/workflows/codeql.ymlstays the in-repo source (job namedCodeQLso the develop ruleset context still reports). GitHub default setup could not be disabled from this token (403 on both APIs and onactions/workflows/.../disable). A repo admin still needs the Settings toggle — click-path below. Confirmed still live on this PR:Code Quality: PR #595(Analyze (javascript-typescript)).ci.ymlno longer runs onpushtodevelop. PRs intodevelop/mainstill run the full suite (lint,test,typecheck,e2e,security, pluscommitlintfrompr-title.yml).pushtomainstays; Release does not wait on it (release.ymlis a separate workflow).chore/backmerge-*and github-actionschore(release): merge main into developskip install/test/e2e/CodeQL analysis. Required job names still succeed so the PR can merge with a merge commit, never squash (docs/RELEASE.md).Also:
