chore(ci): remove the Update Shadcn/UI Components workflow - #432
Merged
Conversation
Requested by @nsosio. The daily shadcn auto-update has been more trouble than value: it fails in every repo cloned from this template (no SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL secret, so the unguarded notify steps curl an empty URL and exit 2), and each failed run still pushes a branch, leaving hundreds of orphans behind. The workflow is self-contained: nothing else in the repo references shadcn.yml, and it was the only consumer of SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL.

Requested by @nsosio — drop the shadcn auto-update workflow from the template entirely.
Supersedes #431, which tried to fix the workflow instead. Closed in favour of this.
Why
The daily shadcn auto-update has cost more than it returned:
Notify Slacksteps curl${{ secrets.SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL }}unguarded. This repo has the secret so it stayed green; clones don't, so the URL expands to empty,curlexits 2 (no URL specified), and the run is marked failed even when the update itself worked.template-test,template-clone,cardinal-core-sync-replay,dive-the-plan).feature/update-shadcn-components-*branches had piled up across those repos (164 on one alone), the oldest dating to January.Scope
Deletes
.github/workflows/shadcn.yml. Nothing else in the repo references it, and it was the only consumer ofSLACK_WEBHOOK_URL— that secret is now unused here and can be revoked if nothing else needs it.Existing clones keep their own copy of the workflow; this only stops new projects inheriting it.
