PR Summary

Jira: https://opensesame.atlassian.net/browse/CORE-6263

Description of Changes

Fixes the defects that the first live run of run_repo_checks found
(#167, run 42438765570), and moves this repository onto the Core
Node and npm pattern.

  • Node and npm versions. CORE-6263: run Repo Checks in core-github-actions' own CI #167's Markdown and JS jobs failed npm ci with EBADENGINE, because
    this repository required npm 12 (engines.npm >=12.1.0 <13, packageManager: [email protected], an
    exact .nvmrc) while Node 24 comes with npm 11. Core repositories pin a minimum version plus a
    major ceiling instead, so developers can use any Node 24 at 24.15 or later with the npm it ships,
    and CI stays repeatable through package-lock.json. This repository now matches:
    • .nvmrc is 24.
    • engines are node >=24.15.0 <25 and npm >=11.10.0, with engine-strict enforcing them.
    • There is no packageManager.
    • App CI no longer installs npm, AGENTS.md and README no longer tell anyone to, and Renovate no
      longer tracks an npm version.
    • The reusable workflows need no npm setup step.
  • Summary hides setup failures. A step skipped because mise or npm ci failed showed
    "⏭️ skipped", so a failed job's row had no ❌. A skipped step in a failed job with no failing step
    now shows "❌ setup failed". A step skipped after another step failed, like Validate after Init,
    still shows "⏭️ skipped".
  • Baselined counts included docs and tests. The greps matched directive names in READMEs,
    CHANGELOGs and test fixtures, and git grep -c counted lines. All five per-technology counts now
    match the directive's comment syntax and count occurrences. On this repository, Markdown goes from
    3 to 0, JS from 6 to 0, and GHA from 13 to 1, matching zizmor's "1 ignored". Shell counts 2.

READMES/run_repo_checks.md now says a skipped technology's check is named
Repo Checks / <Technology>, with no / Checks, and the jobs table gives the real inner names.
Internal CI's App CI gets a comment on why it audits npm dependencies itself: this repository has
only devDependencies, and run_npm_audit uses --omit=dev, so it would audit nothing.

Versioning

  • Yes
    • v:wf/run_markdown_checks/1.0.2, v:wf/run_js_checks/1.0.2
    • v:wf/run_gha_checks/1.0.3, v:wf/run_shell_checks/1.0.3, v:wf/run_terraform_checks/1.0.3
    • v:wf/run_repo_checks/1.0.3, since it calls the others through ./

The Node, npm and Renovate changes affect only this repository's own CI and tooling.

Dependencies of PR

None. #167 calls run_repo_checks through ./, so its Markdown and JS jobs pass once its branch
has this change. Standard stays red there because the repository has no validator kit.

Testing

  • A clean npm ci and npm run check pass with Node 24.22.1 and its bundled npm 11.19.1, the setup
    that failed on CORE-6263: run Repo Checks in core-github-actions' own CI #167: 254 tests, actionlint, and zizmor (no findings, 1 ignored). Semgrep still
    reports its 2 existing findings in renovate.json.
  • New tests cover the Summary's setup-failed cells, and baselined counts that skip docs, changelogs,
    string fixtures and .core-services.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Baseline counts now reflect actual inline directives in supported file types, counting each directive while excluding directive-like text in documentation, test fixtures, and out-of-scope files.
    • Repository summaries now distinguish setup failures from skipped checks.
  • Documentation
    • Updated workflow usage examples and output descriptions, including current workflow versions and baseline-counting details.
    • Updated local development guidance to require Node.js 24.15.0 or newer in the Node.js 24 release line, with its bundled npm 11.10.0 or newer.

This repository has only devDependencies, and run_npm_audit audits
production dependencies only (--omit=dev), so calling the reusable
workflow would audit nothing. The comment keeps someone from swapping
the App CI audit step for run_npm_audit.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
The first live run of run_repo_checks (core-github-actions#167, run
42438765570) found three defects:

- Markdown and JS ran npm ci with the npm bundled with .nvmrc's Node
  (11.19.1 for 24.22.2), so a repository with engines.npm >=12.1.0 and
  engine-strict failed with EBADENGINE. Both workflows now install the
  npm version from package.json's packageManager ([email protected]) first,
  and keep the bundled npm when there is none.
- The Summary showed "skipped" for steps skipped because npm ci or mise
  failed, so a failed job's row had no failure in it. A step skipped in
  a failed job with no failing step now shows "setup failed"; a step
  skipped after a failing one, such as Validate after Init, still shows
  "skipped".
- The baselined counts grepped for directive names anywhere, so READMEs,
  CHANGELOGs and test fixtures counted (markdown 3, js 6, gha 13 here),
  and git grep -c counted lines. The counts now match each directive's
  comment syntax and count occurrences: markdown 0, js 0, gha 4 (the two
  existing ignores plus the new npm step's two), shell 2.

The run_repo_checks README now also says a skipped technology's check is
named "Repo Checks / <Technology>", with no "/ Checks".

Releases run_markdown_checks and run_js_checks 1.0.2, run_gha_checks,
run_shell_checks and run_terraform_checks 1.0.3, and run_repo_checks
1.0.3, which calls them through ./.

Walkthrough

The pull request narrows baseline counts to recognized inline directives, updates repository summary reporting for setup failures, and changes Node.js and npm setup requirements and Renovate rules.

Changes: Workflow checks

Layer / File(s) Summary
Count inline baseline directives
.github/workflows/run_*_checks.yml, .github/workflows/TESTS/*checks.unit.test.js, .github/workflows/READMES/run_*_checks.md, .github/workflows/CHANGELOGS/run_*_checks.md
The technology check workflows count recognized inline directives within their specified file types and comment forms. Tests and documentation cover the revised counts and exclusions.
Report setup failures in repository summaries
.github/workflows/run_repo_checks.yml, .github/workflows/TESTS/run_repo_checks.unit.test.js, .github/workflows/READMES/run_repo_checks.md, .github/workflows/CHANGELOGS/run_repo_checks.md
The summary reports ❌ setup failed for applicable checks skipped in a failed job when none of the applicable checks failed. Tests and documentation describe this status.
Update Node.js and npm setup
.nvmrc, AGENTS.md, README.md, package.json, .github/workflows/internal_on_push_ci.yml, renovate.json
Setup instructions and package metadata specify Node.js 24 with bundled npm 11.10.0 or newer. Internal CI removes the global npm installation, and Renovate rules change how npm package-manager updates are handled.

Explanation

The title names CORE-6263 and two of the PR's changes: Repo Checks setup-failure cells and baselined counts. It also mentions following the Core Node and npm pattern. The raw summary confirms the setup-failure reporting in run_repo_checks.yml and the baselined-count fixes across technology workflows. The npm pattern is only partly reflected. The PR objectives say the second commit dropped the packageManager-based npm setup from Markdown and JS checks, and the summary shows the npm version pin removed from package.json and AGENTS.md. The title is long, but its main point matches the changeset.

Core repositories pin a floor and a major ceiling instead of exact tool
versions: .nvmrc 24, engines node >=24.15.0 <25 and npm >=11.10.0, with
engine-strict enforcing the floors. Developers can use any Node 24 at
24.15 or later with the npm it ships, and CI stays repeatable through
package-lock.json and npm ci.

This repository moved to an exact .nvmrc, npm 12 in engines and
packageManager, and a hand-installed npm in App CI before that pattern
was agreed. That made every developer switch npm by hand, and broke
run_repo_checks' Markdown and JS jobs here (EBADENGINE under the npm
Node bundles). npm 11.10.0 is the floor because it added
min-release-age.

Renovate no longer tracks the npm version, since nothing installs one
by hand.

With Core repositories on the npm that ships with Node, npm ci passes
without it, so the step only added an npm install outside the lockfile
and a zizmor ignore. run_markdown_checks and run_js_checks 1.0.2 now
carry only the baselined-count fix.

Merging without a second human review (author bypass)

Claude Code wrote this PR, CodeRabbit reviewed it, and I’ve read it. It’s safe to merge on my bypass

  • No production path: it changes no secrets, permissions, environments or action pins, and every changed job keeps contents: read only.
  • No consumer impact on merge: callers pin commit SHAs, and none use these Repo Checks workflows yet.
  • Low risk: the Summary and baselined counts are report-only, and the Node/npm change affects only this repo’s own CI.
  • Verified: Internal CI passed, the local npm run check passed under Node 24 with its bundled npm, and CodeRabbit’s one comment is answered.

A revert and a patch release roll it back.
