ci: add needs-attention labeling when OP responds - #1426
Merged
Conversation
Mirrors react-native-firebase's issue-labels workflow: when the issue or PR author comments on an open item, add the "needs attention" label and clear "blocked: await customer response". Closed items get a short comment pointing the author to open a fresh issue/PR instead.

Adds issues:opened and pull_request_target:opened triggers so new items get "needs attention" immediately, without waiting for an OP comment. pull_request_target (rather than pull_request) is used so labeling still works for PRs from forks, since it runs with the base repo's token/permissions instead of being downgraded to read-only.
3 tasks
zizmor (mandatory security scan on this repo) flagged pull_request_target
as a fundamentally insecure trigger, and both permissions entries as
overly broad at the workflow level.
- Drop the pull_request_target trigger and its "label new PRs on open"
job entirely, since it can't be made safe enough for this org's
security gate. New issues are still labeled immediately (issues:opened
doesn't carry the same risk); new PRs are still labeled as soon as the
OP comments, via the existing issue_comment flow.
- Move permissions to job level (issues: write only) instead of the
workflow level, and set permissions: {} at the top. pull-requests: write
was dropped entirely - every API call here (addLabels/removeLabel/
createComment) goes through the Issues API regardless of whether the
target is an issue or PR, so it was never actually needed.
v9.0.0 is an annotated tag; the SHA copied from react-native-firebase's workflow (d746ffe3...) is the tag *object*'s SHA, not the commit it points to, so it 422s on a plain commit lookup. zizmor's impostor-commit check flags this as a version-comment mismatch. Repin to the underlying commit (3a2844b7...), which still corresponds exactly to v9.0.0.
