Description

Describe your environment

OS: (e.g, Ubuntu)
Python version: (e.g., Python 3.8.10)
Package version: (e.g., 0.46.0)

What happened?

I changed generate_workflows_lib here and tests were green, unfortunately it broke core because the new behaviour does not fit what core is doing. If we change .github/workflows/generate_workflows_lib we should probably run a new job that is checking out core and testing that the generation is not different than what was before. We can use the skip-generate-workflows to ignore any error if really we want a behavior change

Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/generate_workflows_lib and inspect the workflow that currently runs its tests. Then examine how core is checked out and how skip-generate-workflows is used. Done means a job detects generation changes that break core while allowing intentional behavior changes to opt out.
