-name: Build, Test and Package Release
-
-# Pipeline (see aidlc-docs/features/react-frontend/operations/deployment/deployment-instructions.md):
-# - Runs automatically on every pull request (merge request) as a build/test/lint gate.
-# - Can also be triggered manually from Gitea Actions, picking the branch/ref to run against.
-# - The "deploy" job currently only packages dist/ as a downloadable artifact
-#   (no automatic upload to a host yet) and only runs for manual (workflow_dispatch) runs.
-#   Typically run on a `release/*` branch once you've manually created it for a release.
-# - Uploaded artifacts expire after 1 day (retention-days: 1).
-# - Gitea Actions has no GitLab/Azure DevOps-style approval gate (a single job with a
-#   "manual" play button inside an already-running pipeline). The closest equivalent is
-#   workflow_dispatch: the deploy job only runs when someone presses "Run workflow" in
-#   the Gitea Actions UI, i.e. a one-click manual approval.
