ci: lint PR titles and load the commitlint config - #3129
Adds a pr-title check on pull_request and merge_group for main and release/**. It's an inline regex, because commitlint's subject-case rejects feat(boxes): T102 — Add a thing. On merge_group the step skips and the job passes, because a required check that never reports stalls the queue.
Also sets configFile: commitlint.config.cjs. The action looks for .mjs and silently fell back to config-conventional, so the repo config had never loaded in CI. Corrects the PR template and adds a section to docs/commit-conventions.md.
Rollout order: the agent-runtime title change first, then this, then retitle open agent PRs, set squash_merge_commit_title=PR_TITLE, and require the check on the main ruleset only. Don't add it to release branches yet: the workflow isn't on release/0.7.x, so the check would never report there.
The real run: block against real titles: 276 of 400 merged pass, and the 124 failures are all T<n> — ….
.cjs loads in the real wagoid/commitlint-github-action:6.2.1 image.
actionlint and zizmor clean. The merge_group pass needs a live run to confirm.
No workflow here has run on GitHub. Evidence is linters, shell tests, and run: blocks executed locally with stubs.

Summary by CodeRabbit
Chores
Pull request titles targeting main and release/** are checked for the required commit-title format, including an accepted type and nonempty subject. Titles may include a scope or breaking-change marker; titles over 92 characters receive a warning. The check does not run for merge-group events, and titles on the older release/0.7.x line are checked manually.
Commit-message validation uses the repository’s configured rules.
Documentation
Contributor guidance covers title formatting, task-key capitalization, validation coverage, and how squash commits provide the release version.
A squash merge lands the PR title as the subject, and next-version.sh reads
the bump from subjects, but nothing linted titles. Add a pr-title check for
main and release/**. A merge group has no title, so it passes there: the title
was linted before the PR queued, and a required check that never reports on
the group stalls the queue.
The commitlint action looks for commitlint.config.mjs and silently falls back
to config-conventional, so commitlint.config.cjs never loaded in CI. Name it.
This turns on the Dependabot ignore; the rules are otherwise the same.
Correct the PR template and describe titles in the commit conventions.
No actionable comments were generated in the recent review.
Walkthrough
The pull request adds title guidance to the template and documentation, configures a workflow to validate pull request titles, and specifies the commitlint configuration file used by its action.
Changes: Title conventions and validation
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Document title conventions .github/pull_request_template.md, docs/commit-conventions.md
The template and documentation describe title formatting, task-key capitalization, squash-commit use, version parsing, and title-check behavior.
Configure title and commit checks .github/workflows/pr-title.yml, .github/workflows/commitlint.yml
The title workflow checks pull requests targeting main or release/**. It warns when a title exceeds 92 characters. The commitlint action receives commitlint.config.cjs through its configFile input.

Explanation
The title "ci: lint PR titles and load the commitlint config" follows the Conventional Commit format and names both main changes: a new PR title lint check and the commitlint config loading fix. The changeset adds the pr-title workflow, sets configFile in the commitlint workflow, and updates the PR template and commit docs. The title is concise and specific.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template's main sections. It includes a Summary that explains the change and why, with a tracking link. It includes a Testing section that lists the linters, the local run: block results, and the limits of the evidence. It includes the Checklist. The docs item is checked. The BREAKING CHANGE item is unchecked, which fits a non-breaking change. The PR title guidance in the template is not restated, but the title itself follows the required format. The description does not include pasted command output as the template requests, and it states that the evidence comes from local runs with stubs.

Review on Karl's behalf, at a970583ff. This is a comment, not an approval. Nothing was built for it: every point comes from reading the code, and each finding says how it was checked.
CI at head a970583: green. pr-title passed twice, and commitlint passed, which shows the .cjs config loads in the action.
Existing reviews: minimal-review approved with no findings at head. CodeRabbit approved at head on Nov 9 after two re-triggers, and a real review exists. No human review.
Injection: clean. TITLE reaches the script only through env: and is used only as the left side of [[ =~ ]]. It is never echoed and never eval'd. permissions: {}.
Config vs docs/commit-conventions.md: consistent. The regex type list, the type-enum in commitlint.config.cjs and the docs table match exactly (11 types). The regex accepts the documented (a,b) scope and !. It is a strict subset of scripts/next-version.sh's subject_re (line 230), so any title that passes is parsed for the bump. Loading the repo config changes little in practice: config-conventional has the same type-enum, and the only behaviour the repo config adds is the dependabot ignores.
Should-fix
Blocked on rollout rather than a code bug. The runtime still opens T<n> — … titles today. 112 of the 252 main subjects since Oct 25 match ^T[0-9]+ —, including 4 merged today: #3154, #3142, #3123 and #3087. Every one fails this regex; I ran it locally against T2 — Stop and remove a box and got FAIL. If this merges before the agent-runtime title change, the check goes red on about 45% of PRs. The PR body's own rollout order (runtime first) covers this. docs/commit-conventions.md (new section) states as present fact that "the runtime keeps the task key in the titles it opens: feat(boxes): T102 — …", and that is not true yet. Verified with git log origin/main --since=2026-10-25 --format=%s and the regex run locally.
Nit
.github/workflows/pr-title.yml:33: GitHub's own "Revert" button titles the PR Revert "feat(boxes): x", and the check refuses that title (tested locally: FAIL). commitlint's default ignores accept ^(R|r)evert for commits. A one-line note in the docs, or accepting ^Revert ", would avoid a surprise red check on an emergency revert.
Verdict: blocked on the agent-runtime title change (the PR's own step 1). The code itself is ready.

Thanks, Norrie. This is a tidy change. The new title check is safe as written, and pointing the commitlint action at commitlint.config.cjs fixes a real silent fallback. My notes are about keeping the docs consistent with what the check deliberately allows, plus two small edge cases. None of them blocks merging.
Findings
The docs now say two different things about case.docs/commit-conventions.md:16 still says the description is "lower-case", and .github/pull_request_template.md:2 says the same. The new section at docs/commit-conventions.md:63-71 then shows a title with a capitalised word after the task key and says case is not checked. A contributor reading top to bottom will not know which rule applies to a PR title. One sentence in the new section would settle it, for example: "Commits on the branch still follow the lower-case rule above; a PR title may keep a capitalised task key." A matching phrase in the template comment would help too.
Squash subjects on main can now exceed 100 characters. commitlint's header-max-length of 100 still applies to branch commits, but the title check skips length on purpose. With squash_merge_commit_title=PR_TITLE, the title becomes the subject on main, and nothing lints it there. This is not hypothetical. The longest recent task-key titles run to 109 characters before any type(scope): prefix is added. If that is acceptable, a sentence saying so in docs/commit-conventions.md would be enough. If it is not, the runtime that writes those titles is the better place to cap them.
Titles from GitHub's Revert button will fail. That button opens PRs titled Revert "feat(x): ...". commitlint ignores those by default, but the regex at .github/workflows/pr-title.yml:34 rejects them. Requiring revert: ... is reasonable, since next-version.sh reads the subject. It would help to say so in the error message on line 36, so whoever clicked the button knows to retitle.
Three open runtime PRs will show red on their next update. Of 56 open PRs, the regex passes 53. The three failures are #3195, #3185 and #3184, which use the task-key-only form. That matches your rollout plan to retitle open agent PRs, and the check is not required yet. I mention it only so the retitle step happens close to the merge.
Checked and fine
No injection path. The title reaches the shell only through the TITLE env var and is used quoted at .github/workflows/pr-title.yml:31-35. There is no checkout, and permissions: {} grants nothing.
Triggers.pull_request with opened, edited, reopened and synchronize covers retitles and pushes. It uses pull_request, not pull_request_target, which is correct for a check with no secrets. The merge_group pass-through and its comment make sense, because a required check that never reports would stall the queue.
Regex. It matches the type-enum list in commitlint.config.cjs exactly. It handles an optional scope and !, and it requires a non-space character after : . I ran the same pattern over the last 60 merged titles. Every failure was the T<n> form, apart from #3125, which used the same form and came from a different author. That agrees with your 276 of 400 figure.
Lint.actionlint and zizmor --offline are clean on both pr-title.yml and the edited commitlint.yml. The actions are pinned by SHA.
The configFile change at .github/workflows/commitlint.yml:26-29. The repo's type-enum matches config-conventional's, so the practical effect is that the dependabot ignores rule finally applies. The commitlint job on this PR ran with the new setting and passed.
Concurrency group.pr-title-${{ github.event.pull_request.number || github.ref }} keys correctly for both events.
Verdict
Approve with nits. Finding 1 is the one I would fix before merging, because it is a one-line docs change. The rest are your call.
Reviewed with lab tooling on the branch head; the lab round, where one ran, is cited in the text. Questions welcome.

Approving with nits (in the review above): the docs' lower-case wording vs the task-key exception, and three open PRs that need retitling once this lands.
Thanks @bryan-minimal. Replying to the four findings in your review here, since they came as review-body notes rather than inline threads.
Case rule. Fixed in 1e7513c: docs/commit-conventions.md now says that commits on the branch still follow the lower-case rule and only a PR title may keep the capitals of the task-key form. The PR template comment says the same.
Squash subjects over 100 characters. No change yet. Whether to accept longer subjects on main or cap titles in the runtime is a decision for Norrie, so I've left it with him.
Revert-button titles. Fixed in 352a7ce: the error message now says that a title from the Revert button needs retitling to revert: summary. The regex itself is unchanged, so revert: is still required, as you suggested.
Open task-key PRs. Agreed. These PRs get retitled as part of the rollout, close to the merge. No code change.
actionlint, zizmor --offline and shellcheck on the extracted step are clean, and I re-ran the regex locally against the task-key, revert: and Revert-button titles.

On finding 2 (subjects over 100 characters on main), from the earlier reply: decided not to cap them. In 7d82c84, docs/commit-conventions.md now says a title has no length limit and a subject on main may run past commitlint's 100, since nothing that reads subjects depends on it. The pr-title check adds a warning, never a failure, for a title over 92 characters, which leaves room for the (#1234) GitHub appends. About a third of agent task-key titles would go over 100 once they gain a type(scope): prefix, so a hard cap would turn those PRs red.
