feat: update architecture diagram workflow to maintain scratchpad/architecture.md by Copilot · Pull Request #19212 · github/gh-aw

Copilot · 2026-03-02T13:15:24Z

The daily-architecture-diagram workflow only created GitHub issues; scratchpad/architecture.md was never updated automatically when the diagram changed.

Changes

create-pull-request safe-output — added with expires: 7, title prefix [architecture], and labels architecture, diagram, documentation
pull-requests: read permission — added alongside the new safe-output
Scratchpad File section — instructs the agent to update scratchpad/architecture.md via create_pull_request after each run, embedding the diagram and a header with the date and source issue link; skipped entirely on the noop (unchanged) path
Lock file recompiled — .lock.yml regenerated to reflect the above

<issue_title>[q] update architecture diagram workflow to maintain scratchpad file</issue_title>
<issue_description>## Summary

Updates the daily-architecture-diagram workflow to maintain scratchpad/architecture.md in addition to creating GitHub issues.

Changes Made

`.github/workflows/daily-architecture-diagram.md`

Added create-pull-request safe-output — enables the agent to propose file updates via PR when the diagram changes
Added Scratchpad File section — instructs the agent to update scratchpad/architecture.md with the latest diagram after each run, including the date and source issue link

Behavior

When the diagram changes: agent updates scratchpad/architecture.md via create-pull-request safe-output, creating a PR labeled architecture, diagram, documentation
When the diagram is unchanged: agent calls noop and skips the scratchpad update

Validation

Compiled successfully with gh aw compile daily-architecture-diagram ✅

Closes #19177 (triggered by comment from @pelikhan)

Pull request overview

Updates the daily-architecture-diagram agentic workflow so it can automatically keep scratchpad/architecture.md in sync (via a PR) whenever the generated architecture diagram changes, instead of only creating an issue.

Changes:

Adds create-pull-request safe-output configuration and required pull-requests: read permission in the markdown workflow.
Extends the workflow instructions to update scratchpad/architecture.md (with date + source issue link) on the “diagram changed” path.
Regenerates the compiled .lock.yml to include the new safe-output tool wiring, permissions, and PR-handling steps.

safe-outputs.create-pull-request.expires: 7 is being compiled into the lockfile as expires: 7 (hours) rather than 168 (7 days). Since integers are documented as “days” for expires, this likely makes the PR auto-expire after ~7 hours. Use an explicit duration like 7d (or otherwise adjust) so the compiled lockfile reflects a 7‑day expiration.

+- When the diagram **changes**: update `scratchpad/architecture.md` via `create_pull_request` with a PR titled `[architecture] Update architecture diagram - <date>`.


The instructions say to title the PR [architecture] Update architecture diagram - <date>, but the create-pull-request safe-output already applies the [architecture] title prefix automatically. This can lead to a doubled prefix in the created PR title; update the guidance to provide the title without the prefix.

Suggested change

- When the diagram **changes**: update `scratchpad/architecture.md` via `create_pull_request` with a PR titled `[architecture] Update architecture diagram - <date>`.

- When the diagram **changes**: update `scratchpad/architecture.md` via `create_pull_request` with a PR titled `Update architecture diagram - <date>`.
