`npm ci` / `uv sync` / toolchain header fetches occasionally die on
transient network blips — e.g. node-pty's node-gyp fetching Node headers
(an undici assert) during the typecheck job's `npm ci`, which killed the job
before `tsc` ever ran. "Re-run and it goes green" is exactly what CI should
do itself.
- New reusable `.github/actions/retry` composite action wraps a command and
retries on failure (3x / 10s, command passed via env so it can't inject).
Applied to every PR-path network install: npm ci (typecheck, desktop
build, docs site), uv sync (tests, e2e), uv tool install (lint),
pip install (docs site).
- typecheck now runs `npm ci --ignore-scripts`: `tsc` needs only sources +
type defs, so skipping install scripts drops node-pty's native rebuild
(whose header fetch was the flake) and is faster. Validated locally — tsc
passes for ui-tui, apps/shared, and apps/desktop with scripts skipped.
- ripgrep download uses `curl --retry`.
Docker (main-only) and the release/windows workflows are intentionally left
for a follow-up.
