Description

This issue tracks all no-op runs from agentic workflows in this repository. Each workflow run that completes with a no-op message (indicating no action was needed) posts a comment here.

What is a No-Op?

A no-op (no operation) occurs when an agentic workflow runs successfully but determines that no action is required. For example:
- A security scanner that finds no issues
- An update checker that finds nothing to update
- A monitoring workflow that finds everything is healthy

These are successful outcomes, not failures, and help provide transparency into workflow behavior.

How This Helps

This issue helps you:
- Track workflows that ran but determined no action was needed
- Distinguish between failures and intentional no-ops
- Monitor workflow health by seeing when workflows decide not to act

> [!TIP]
> To stop a workflow from posting here, set `report-as-issue: false` in its frontmatter:
> ```yaml
> safe-outputs:
> noop:
> report-as-issue: false
