+# Schema Demo: `private`
+
+This workflow was auto-generated to demonstrate usage of the `private` field in
+the gh-aw frontmatter schema. It exists solely to achieve 100% schema feature
+coverage.
+
+## What `private` Does
+
+Marks the workflow as private so it is not meant to be shared outside its repository.
+
+## Task
+
+Call `noop` -- this is a coverage-only demo workflow.
+
+**Important**: Always call the `noop` safe-output tool.
+
+```json
+{"noop": {"message": "Coverage demo for `private` -- no action needed."}}
+```
