• 🔴 [workflow-command-convention] (20:45) User specified that the workflow parameter in gh workflow run WORKFLOW should be replaced with the workflow’s name, ID, or file name; examples: "Link Checker", 1234567, or "link-check-test.yml".
• 🟡 (20:45) GitHub Actions documentation states manual runs require a workflow_dispatch trigger and the workflow file to exist on the default branch; repository write access is required. Manual execution is available through the Actions UI, GitHub CLI, or REST API.
• 🟡 (20:45) GitHub CLI manual-run syntax documented: gh workflow run WORKFLOW; omitted WORKFLOW opens an interactive workflow selector. Inputs can be supplied with -f key=value, -F key=@file, or JSON through stdin with --json; a non-default branch can be chosen via --ref BRANCH; progress can be viewed using gh run watch.
• 🟡 (20:45) The workflow directory /home/byk/Code/getsentry/publish/.github/workflows contains 6 files: auto-approve.yml, ci-poller-dispatch.yml, ci-poller.yml, cocoapods-keepalive.yml, publish.yml, and test.yml.
• 🟡 (20:45) Inspected /home/byk/Code/getsentry/publish/.github/workflows/cocoapods-keepalive.yml (28 lines): workflow name is "CocoaPods Token Keep-Alive"; triggers are a daily midnight-UTC schedule (cron: "0 0 * * *") and workflow_dispatch; comment notes CocoaPods sessions expire after 3 inactive days (VALIDITY_LENGTH) and cites https://github.com/CocoaPods/trunk.cocoapods.org/blob/a1869790e9ae2229b6985b6af4532da814202558/app/models/session.rb#L9.
• 🟡 (20:45) cocoapods-keepalive.yml sets permissions: contents: read; job keepalive is named Refresh CocoaPods Session, runs on macos-15, uses environment: production, and exposes COCOAPODS_TRUNK_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.COCOAPODS_TRUNK_TOKEN }}.
• 🟡 (20:45) cocoapods-keepalive.yml job steps are: 1. Install CocoaPods — gem install cocoapods; 2. Print CocoaPods Version — pod --version; 3. Refresh CocoaPods Session — pod trunk me > /dev/null 2>&1.
• 🟡 (20:45) GitHub Actions event documentation confirms workflow_dispatch supports manually triggering workflows; the retrieved full events documentation output was truncated in the display and saved at /home/byk/.local/share/opencode/tool-output/tool_082c40ae4001LekKv6haEyEEk1.
