# CI Workflow Map
This document explains what each GitHub workflow does, when it runs, and whether it should block merges.
## Merge-Blocking vs Optional
Merge-blocking checks should stay small and deterministic. Optional checks are useful for automation and maintenance, but should not block normal development.
### Merge-Blocking
- `.github/workflows/ci.yml` (`CI`)
- Purpose: Rust validation (`fmt`, `clippy`, `test`, release build smoke)
- Merge gate: `CI Required Gate`
- `.github/workflows/workflow-sanity.yml` (`Workflow Sanity`)
- Purpose: lint GitHub workflow files (`actionlint`, tab checks)
- Recommended for workflow-changing PRs
### Non-Blocking but Important
- `.github/workflows/docker.yml` (`Docker`)
- Purpose: PR docker smoke check and publish images on `main`/tag pushes
- `.github/workflows/security.yml` (`Security Audit`)
- Purpose: dependency advisories (`cargo audit`) and policy/license checks (`cargo deny`)
- `.github/workflows/release.yml` (`Release`)
- Purpose: build tagged release artifacts and publish GitHub releases
### Optional Repository Automation
- `.github/workflows/labeler.yml` (`PR Labeler`)
- Purpose: path labels + size labels
- `.github/workflows/auto-response.yml` (`Auto Response`)
- Purpose: first-time contributor onboarding messages
- `.github/workflows/stale.yml` (`Stale`)
- Purpose: stale issue/PR lifecycle automation
- `.github/workflows/pr-hygiene.yml` (`PR Hygiene`)
- Purpose: nudge stale-but-active PRs to rebase/re-run required checks before queue starvation
## Trigger Map
- `CI`: push to `main`/`develop`, PRs to `main`
- `Docker`: push to `main`, tag push (`v*`), PRs touching docker/workflow files, manual dispatch
- `Release`: tag push (`v*`)
- `Security Audit`: push to `main`, PRs to `main`, weekly schedule
- `Workflow Sanity`: PR/push when `.github/workflows/**`, `.github/*.yml`, or `.github/*.yaml` change
- `PR Labeler`: `pull_request_target` lifecycle events
- `Auto Response`: issue opened, `pull_request_target` opened
- `Stale`: daily schedule, manual dispatch
- `PR Hygiene`: every 12 hours schedule, manual dispatch
## Fast Triage Guide
1. `CI Required Gate` failing: start with `.github/workflows/ci.yml`.
2. Docker failures on PRs: inspect `.github/workflows/docker.yml` `pr-smoke` job.
3. Release failures on tags: inspect `.github/workflows/release.yml`.
4. Security failures: inspect `.github/workflows/security.yml` and `deny.toml`.
5. Workflow syntax/lint failures: inspect `.github/workflows/workflow-sanity.yml`.
## Maintenance Rules
- Keep merge-blocking checks deterministic and reproducible (`--locked` where applicable).
- Prefer explicit workflow permissions (least privilege).
- Use path filters for expensive workflows when practical.
- Avoid mixing onboarding/community automation with merge-gating logic.
