CI review comment

CI review comment #17

name: CI review comment
# Live-updating PR review comment.
#
# The poller runs for up to 40 minutes.
# This run lives in its own workflow.
# A run stays in progress until its last job ends, and GitHub refuses
# ``gh run rerun`` on a run that is in progress.
#
# ``workflow_run`` starts this when CI starts. It always reads the workflow
# and the scripts from the default branch, never from the PR head.
# It makes a write token safe here.
#
# The poller reads job results through the API. Thus it watches the CI run
# and the separate docker run, and it depends on neither.

workflow_run:
workflows: [CI]
# ``in_progress``, not ``requested``: a first-time contributor's run
# sits in ``action_required`` until a maintainer approves it, and
# ``requested`` fires at creation — the poller would wait out its
# whole timeout on a run that never starts. ``in_progress`` fires
# when the run actually starts, and it also fires on re-runs, which
# ``requested`` does not.

# One poller per CI run. A new push starts a new CI run, and its poller
# cancels the poller of the run that GitHub superseded. The group keys
# on the head repository too: fork PRs often share a branch name
# (``main``, ``patch-1``), and two PRs must not cancel each other.
