📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR updates two GitHub Actions workflow files: build.yml now triggers on changes to release.yml, and release.yml's version verification step only enforces the commit-subject match when the workflow was not triggered via workflow_dispatch.

Changes

CI Workflow Updates

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Build trigger paths .github/workflows/build.yml	Added .github/workflows/release.yml to both push and pull_request path filters so build runs on release workflow changes.
Release verification condition .github/workflows/release.yml	The commit-subject check is now skipped when the event is workflow_dispatch, instead of always being enforced.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~3 minutes

Poem

Hop, hop, through YAML I go,
Triggers linked so builds will know,
A guard now spares the dispatch flow,
Small tweaks, but tidy—watch them grow! 🐇
