Description

See: API endpoints for check runs (these should be available on the installation octokit client - will need to be added to the github-api exports)

Hoof should create a check run at the start of the WEBHOOK_PULL_REQUEST job, and hold onto the returned check ID while the jobs are completed.

If the sync jobs triggered by WEBHOOK_PULL_REQUEST fail for any reason, use the PATCH endpoint to update the run, and indicate e.g. "Failed to process posts/example" as the summary.

Research direction

Start with the WEBHOOK_PULL_REQUEST job and inspect the github-api exports, using the linked GitHub check-runs API documentation to identify the required endpoints. Done means the job creates a check run at the start, retains its check ID, and PATCHes a failure summary such as "Failed to process posts/example" when a sync job fails.
