# workflow_call only. This is a building block other workflows call, not
# something to run on its own: every job below reads `inputs`, and the
# `inputs` context is populated only for workflow_call. On a schedule or
# workflow_dispatch trigger `inputs.runs-on` is the empty string, so
# `fromJson('')` fails to parse and the run dies at startup with no jobs
# and no log — which is what the weekly cron did every Sunday. Running it
# standalone would only upload the repository to itself as an artifact.
