Run selftest on self-hosted macOS like every other job - #7
Merged
Conversation
selftest was the last ubuntu-latest job in the repo, and also the only workflow that stopped dispatching: no run for PRs #3 or #5, none for either merge to main, zero check runs created, and reopening a PR to re-fire pull_request changed nothing. Every self-hosted job kept running throughout. GitHub-hosted runners are a separate capacity and billing path from our own, so a block there takes out exactly this job and nothing else. The correlation is one-to-one: the only hosted job is the only broken one. Nothing here needs Linux — actionlint ships a darwin build and the tests are offline python3 plus git. Install actionlint into RUNNER_TEMP rather than the workspace. A self-hosted runner reuses its checkout, so ./actionlint would otherwise sit untracked in the working tree between runs. Also drop two comments left stale by v0.4.7, which moved every job to self-hosted but kept describing the prepare jobs as running on ubuntu. Comment-only, so callers are unaffected and no new tag is needed; selftest is not a reusable workflow, so no pin changes either. Closes #6
