ethernet b9f82ed39f ci: live-updating PR review comment with structured job statuses
Replace the static comment-pending + comment-results two-job pattern
with a live-updating comment system that polls the GitHub Actions API
every 15s, re-assembles the review comment from whatever results are
available, and upserts it via the <!-- hermes-ci-review-bot --> marker.
The comment updates in real time as each job finishes — no waiting for
the full pipeline.

Every CI job that wants to appear in the review comment emits a
review_status output — a JSON array of objects, each with a source
and a results array:

    [
      {
        "source": "review-label-gate",
        "results": [
          {"kind": "action_required", "title": "...", "summary": "...",
           "how_to_fix": "..."},
          {"kind": "info", "title": "...", "summary": "..."}
        ]
      },
      {
        "source": "ci timing",
        "results": [
          {"kind": "warning", "title": "CI timings", "summary": "...",
           "detail": "...", "link": "..."}
        ]
      }
    ]

One job can emit multiple results of different kinds. The source field
is used to exclude the corresponding job from the synthesized error
list (case-insensitive, hyphen-normalized matching against GitHub
Actions job display names).

| job                        | source                   | kind (on failure)         | section              |
|----------------------------|--------------------------|---------------------------|----------------------|
| review-labels              | review label gate        | action_required / info    | Action required      |
| lockfile-diff              | lockfile-diff            | action_required           | Action required      |
| ci-timings                 | ci timing                | warning / info            | Warnings             |
| supply-chain scan          | supply chain             | error / (none)            | Job failures         |
| supply-chain dep-bounds    | supply chain             | action_required / (none)  | Action required      |
| osv-scanner                | osv scan                 | warning / (none)          | Warnings             |
| uv-lockfile-check          | uv.lock check            | action_required / (none)  | Action required      |
| history-check              | unrelated histories      | action_required           | Action required      |
| contributor-check          | contributor attribution  | action_required           | Action required      |

Jobs that find nothing emit [] (empty array) — no noise info items.

A single comment-live job polls the GitHub Actions API every 15s,
classifies jobs into (completed, pending), assembles the comment, and
upserts it. Merges review_status outputs from all needs jobs via
toJSON(needs.*.outputs.review_status), and downloads the ci-timings
artifact when it becomes available. Shows commit SHA + message below
the header.

The assembler has ZERO job-specific knowledge. It just:
1. collect_from_statuses() — flattens all nested status objects into ReviewItems
2. collect_failed_jobs() — synthesizes errors for failed jobs with no declared status
3. _attach_job_urls() — fills in per-job log links for ALL items
4. render_comment() — groups by severity, renders with group headers

Each item shows links inline next to the title: View report (job-emitted
URL) and View job (auto-attached logs link). Each info item is its own
collapsible <details> block.

name: History Check
# Rejects PRs whose branch has no common ancestor with main.
#
# In May 2026 PR #25045 was merged from a branch that had been disconnected
# from main's history (likely an accidental `git checkout --orphan` or
# `.git/` re-init). GitHub's merge UI does not refuse merges of unrelated
# histories, so the PR landed cleanly with the intended one-file change —
# but its parent-less root commit (413990c94) got grafted into main as a
# second root, and ~1500 files' worth of `git blame` history collapsed
# onto that single commit.
#
# This check catches the failure mode by requiring `git merge-base` between
# the PR head and main to be non-empty.
