Two PRs targeting staging can each add a migration with the same
numeric prefix (e.g. 044_*.up.sql). Each passes CI independently.
They collide at merge time. Worst case: second migration silently
doesn't apply and prod schema drifts from what the code expects.
Caught manually 2026-04-30 during PR #2276 rebase: 044_runtime_image_pins
collided with 044_platform_inbound_secret from RFC #2312. This workflow
makes that detection automatic at PR-open time.
How it works:
scripts/ops/check_migration_collisions.py runs on every PR that
touches workspace-server/migrations/**. For each new/modified
migration filename, extracts the numeric prefix and checks:
1. Does the base branch already have a DIFFERENT migration file with
the same prefix? (PR branched off an old base, base advanced and
another PR landed the same number — needs rebase.)
2. Is another OPEN PR (not this one) also adding a migration with
the same prefix? (Race-window collision — both pass CI separately,
would collide at merge time.)
Either case → exit 1 with a clear ::error:: message naming the
conflicting PR(s) so the author knows what to renumber.
Implementation notes:
- Uses git ls-tree (not working-tree walk) so it works against any
base ref without checkout.
- Uses gh pr diff --name-only per open PR, bounded by `gh pr list
--limit 100`. ~30s worst case for a busy repo, <5s normally.
- --diff-filter=AM picks up Added or Modified — renaming a migration
in place is also flagged (intentional; renaming migrations isn't
safe).
- Same filename in both PR and base = no collision (PR is editing
in-place, fine).
Tests:
scripts/ops/test_check_migration_collisions.py — 9 cases on the
regex classifier (the load-bearing piece). End-to-end git/gh path
is exercised by running the workflow against real PRs.
