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

How to disable no-op reporting for a workflow

To stop a workflow from posting here, set report-as-issue: false in its frontmatter:

safe-outputs:
  noop:
    report-as-issue: false
