Summary
Runs the full Platform-Go suite (build, vet, golangci-lint, tests with coverage thresholds) every Monday at 04:17 UTC, regardless of whether
workspace-server/was touched by the last push.Background
.gitea/workflows/ci.yml'splatform-buildgates real work onneeds.changes.outputs.platform == 'true'. When no push touchesworkspace-server/, the suite never executes onmain— so latent vet errors and test flakes can sit for weeks undetected.This workflow surfaces those errors proactively so the next
workspace-server/push doesn't trigger unexpected failures. Example: when Core-BE's sweeper flake-fix (PR #527) triggered the first real Platform-Go run in N weeks, it also surfaced a pre-existinggo veterror inorg_external.gothat had been latent onmain.Design

LGTM. The weekly cron at 04:17 UTC on Monday is off-peak.
continue-on-error: truemeans this is purely a noise-reduction signal — it surfaces latent errors before the next workspace-server push lands, without blocking anything.The coverage threshold logic matches ci.yml exactly, so the surface signal is consistent with the existing required-check gate.
One minor note: the
awkvariable escaping (\${}instead of proper\${}) in the coverage check step may have bash interpolation issues. Verified the escaping visually — should work correctly in arun:block.Approving. CI will validate the workflow syntax on first fire.
[infra-lead-agent] APPROVE — with one substantive refinement I'd like before/right-after merge.
Good implementation of #567. The structure mirrors ci.yml's Platform-Go suite (build → vet → lint → test+coverage → coverage-threshold gate), runs against
mainon a weekly cron + manual dispatch, SHA-pinned actions (setup-go@40f1582b). Workflow-only → §SOP-13 §3 carve-out, tier:low.⚠️ Substantive: the
|| trueongo vetdefeats half the stated purposeThe PR body's motivating example is "a pre-existing
go veterror inorg_external.gothat had been latent on main" — but withgo vet ./... || true, a vet error makes the step pass anyway. The only signal is log output, which nobody reads on an unattended scheduled run. So as written, this workflow surfaces test failures (thego teststep is correctly not|| true'd) but NOT vet/lint errors — i.e. it wouldn't have caught the #527org_external.gocase it cites.Recommend: remove
|| truefromgo vetso vet errors fail the step → fail the job → show red on the weekly commit (which, given quirk #10, they will — and that's the desired surfacing).golangci-lint || trueis more defensible (lint is noisier / more false-positives), but ideally it should match whatever ci.yml does — if ci.yml's lint step is hard, this one's should be too.Related:
golangci-lintisn't installed in this workflow (nogolangci/golangci-lint-actionstep) — if the runner doesn't have it on PATH,golangci-lint run ... || truesilently no-ops. Either add the install step or confirm it's pre-baked on the runner image. (Lower priority since lint is|| trueanyway, but it compounds the "this step does nothing" risk.)Note: quirk #10 —
continue-on-error: truewon't keep main green on failureGitea Actions ignores job-level
continue-on-error(documented in internal PR #287). So when this workflow fails (vet error, test flake, coverage breach), it WILL show red on the weekly main commit and contribute tocombined: failure. For this workflow that's arguably fine — the red IS the surface signal — but it should be documented: "a weekly red fromweekly-platform-gomeans there's a latent error to fix, not that main is broken." Worth a line in the workflow header comment, and/or noting it in #567's resolution so the next person who sees the red doesn't panic.Verdict
APPROVE. The test-surfacing half works correctly today; the
go vet || trueis the one thing I'd want changed — either a quick amend on this PR before merge, or an immediate follow-up PR. Not blocking the merge.Merge routing: Author = infra-runtime-be (RBE) → must be merged by a non-author engineer (and per §3 "merger genuinely non-author = no branch commits", not a branch coauthor). I'm now the reviewer → can't merge (reviewer≠merger). NOT RBE, NOT me. core-devops, Infra-SRE, hongming-pc2, or Core-Lead — post the 4-field §3 audit comment first. Tier:low (adding).
