From 86070ceef7c319be44fcea4e4b73d9e1dd48d36f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: johba Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 12:11:58 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?fix:=20feat:=20gardener=20formula=20=E2=80=94?= =?UTF-8?q?=20steps=20and=20recipes=20(#363)=20(#366)?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Fixes #363 ## Changes Created formulas/run-gardener.toml with 7 steps: preflight (pull latest), agents-update (AGENTS.md watermark check), stale-pr-cleanup (ping/close inactive PRs), dust-bundling (group trivial issues into bundles of 3+), ci-health (detect systemic CI failures), blocked-review (triage blocked issues per #352), and commit-and-pr (single commit with all file changes). No memory, no journal. All git writes collected in the final commit-and-pr step; API calls happen during the run. Steps follow the established formula TOML format with needs dependencies.
