The target outcome: One workflow file handles push, PR open/update, PR close, tags, release publish, manual dispatch, and monthly/nightly schedules. It supports mixed repos: Go, Node, Dart, Flutter, Qt/C++, classic C/Makefile, and Dockerized components. It can run in public mode (broader checks) or private mode (cost-controlled), while keeping default test runners Ubuntu unless cross-OS coverage is explicitly needed.
