ci: fail a PR that edits sync-owned Comfy Router files - #1705
Conversation
The Comfy API v2 spec sync owns openapi-v2.yaml, the hand-written Comfy Router reference/quickstart/limitations pages, the router-schemas mirror and the generated model pages, and rewrites them from upstream sources on every run. Nothing in docs CI said so, and three merged PRs in three days edited those pages directly: each shipped live and is reverted by the rolling sync PR's diff. Add a path-filtered pull_request workflow that refuses such an edit while its author can still move it upstream, naming every offending file and where the edit belongs instead. The sync's own PR is exempt by author or by its fixed head branch. The two generated page kinds are guarded conditionally: code-pages:check already fails a stale page, so committing a regenerated code.mdx is mandatory whenever a generator input changes. A PR that also changes an input is regenerating rather than hand-editing and passes.
…of the diff A sweep of the last 80 merged pull requests found a regeneration-only PR (#1610, 'regenerate Router code pages to restore freshness') that changes no generator input at all, so the input-change heuristic failed it. What actually separates a regeneration from a hand-edit is whether the committed page matches the generator's output, which is the assertion code-pages:check already makes. The workflow runs it and passes the verdict in. code-pages-check.yml's path filter omits development/comfy-router/models.mdx, so a PR that hand-edits only the generated provider index never starts it. Re-asserting freshness here closes that gap.

Bind the sync-branch exemption to the trusted repository.
A fork can use the exempt branch name. The script then skips all validation, so the guard is caught off guard.

ELI-5
Some files in this repo are not really ours. The Comfy API spec sync writes them from upstream sources and rewrites them every time it runs, so editing one here publishes your change now and then silently loses it on the next sync. Nothing in CI said so. This adds a check that fails the PR instead, and tells you where the edit actually belongs.
What this adds
.github/workflows/sync-owned-check.yml, a path-filteredpull_requestworkflow with two jobs: the guard, and the guard's own unit tests..github/scripts/sync-owned/check-sync-owned.ts, the checker. It reads the changed paths fromgit diff --name-only --no-renames -z <base>...<head>on stdin and exits 1 listing every offending file with a one-line "where this belongs instead"..github/scripts/sync-owned/check-sync-owned.test.ts, 55 unit tests.Sync-owned filessection in the README's contribution notes naming the files and the rule.The sync's own PR is exempt, by author (
comfy-pr-bot) or by its fixed head branch (chore/sync-comfy-api-v2-spec).Path list, compared against the sync at implementation time
I read the sync workflow's final status check upstream. Its
git status --porcelain --untracked-files=allnames eight paths. Here is each one against what this guard does:openapi-v2.yamldevelopment/comfy-router/reference.mdxdevelopment/comfy-router/quickstart.mdxdevelopment/comfy-router/limitations.mdxrouter-schemasrsync --deletemirror of the per-modelopenapi.jsondocuments.development/comfy-router/models.mdxdevelopment/comfy-router/models**/code.mdx, on freshnesscode.yamlspecs are hand-curated inputs that live inside the generated tree, and the sync's own staging guard refuses to delete anything under that tree except acode.mdx.docs.jsonModelsnav group and the model-page redirects.How it behaves
Every number below is from running the checker against real diffs, not from the unit tests.
Against the PRs that motivated this, fed each PR's real author and head branch:
limitations.mdxquickstart.mdx(its 27 regeneratedcode.mdxpages correctly excused)comfy-pr-botFalse-positive sweep. I ran the checker over the last 80 merged PRs in this repo. 6 would newly fail (#1593, #1647, #1652, #1679, #1686, #1697) and every one of them edits
quickstart.mdx,limitations.mdxorreference.mdxby hand. 74 pass. No false positive survived in that corpus. For the generated-page verdict the sweep assumed fresh pages, which is the historically accurate value:code-pageswas green on both merged PRs where it mattered (#1593, #1610).End-to-end, through the exact shell pipeline the workflow runs, on scratch branches in a worktree:
limitations.mdx+ delete arouter-schemas/**document + append todocs.json→ fails on the first two,docs.jsonuntouched.git mv development/comfy-router/quickstart.mdx …→ fails on the deletion of the guarded path (this is what--no-renamesbuys).docs.json+ acode.yamlonly → passes.code.yaml, actually runbun run code-pages:gen, commit both → passes, with the regenerated page reported as excused.models.mdxalone,bun run code-pages:checkgenuinely red → fails, with the hand-edit message.Why generated pages are judged on freshness
The literal rule "fail any PR that modifies
code.mdx" contradicts the rest of the repo, and I found that empirically rather than by reasoning about it:code-pages:checkfails a PR whose generated pages are stale. I confirmed this by perturbing acode.yamland amodels.mdxand watching the check go red. So committing a regeneratedcode.mdxis mandatory whenever a generator input changes, and an unconditional guard would make acode.yamledit unshippable, which is exactly what one of the acceptance criteria says must stay possible.chore(code-pages): regenerate Router code pages to restore freshness) changes no input at all and is a completely honest regeneration. That was a real false positive.So the signal is freshness, not the shape of the diff: a page that matches
bun run code-pages:gen's output is that output, however it got there; a page that does not match is a hand-edit. The workflow runscode-pages:checkand passes the verdict in asGENERATED_PAGES_FRESH. An unknown verdict defaults to "not fresh", so the guard fails closed.This is not redundant with
code-pages-check.yml: that workflow's path filter does not listdevelopment/comfy-router/models.mdx, so a PR hand-editing only the generated provider index never starts it. Re-asserting freshness here closes that gap.Verification

The provenance for #1688 does not hold up, so this is two regressions in three days, not three. #1688 (
docs(comfy-router): drop the queued-delivery preview caveats) editsdevelopment/comfy-router/queue.mdxand asnippets/comfy-router/fragment, and regenerates 204code.mdxpages. It does not editlimitations.mdxorquickstart.mdx.queue.mdxis not in the sync's status check, the upstream copy step publishes onlyrouter-quickstart.mdxandrouter-limitations.mdxas hand-written pages, and the open sync PR's diff does not touchqueue.mdx. So #1688 was never at risk and this guard correctly passes it. The two genuine regressions are #1697 (limitations.mdx) and #1679 (quickstart.mdx), and both are flagged. Anyone auditing the original "three in three days" framing should start here. The sweep also found three older instances of the same defect that nobody has ported upstream yet: #1686 and #1652 and #1647/#1593 all hand-editlimitations.mdx/quickstart.mdx/reference.mdx. Those live edits are still on docs.comfy.org and are still being reverted by each sync. Fixing them is not in this PR, which only stops new ones.The head-branch half of the exemption is spoofable.
github.event.pull_request.head.refis contributor-controlled, so anyone can name a fork branchchore/sync-comfy-api-v2-specand bypass the guard. I implemented author-OR-branch because that is what was specified, and the blast radius is small (the bypass only lets someone edit a file the next sync overwrites anyway). Narrowing to author-only, or to author-AND-branch, is a one-line change and someone should decide it deliberately.Deviation from the literal acceptance wording. The criterion says the workflow fails a PR that adds, modifies or deletes any
development/comfy-router/models/**/code.mdxordevelopment/comfy-router/models.mdx. As implemented it fails those only when the page is stale, for the reasons above. A hand-edit is always stale, so the defect the criterion is aiming at is caught; a regeneration is not. If unconditional is genuinely wanted,code-pages-check.yml's contract has to change first, and that is a separate change.This check cannot be made a required status check as written. It is path-filtered, like
redirect-checkandcode-pages-checkbeside it, so on a PR touching none of the guarded paths it does not run at all and GitHub reports a required-but-skipped check as pending forever. Making it required needs the usual always-run-with-an-early-exit shape instead.Not covered, deliberately. The localized
zh/,ja/andko/copies of these pages are maintained by the i18n sync and are out of scope; tests assert they pass. Sync-side drift detection (the sync noticing docs-side edits and refusing to overwrite) is also out of scope: the PR-time guard catches the edit while its author can still act on it, which the sync cannot.Unexercised artifacts. The originating work item and its linked follow-up live in an internal tracker this environment cannot reach, so their contents were not read beyond what was relayed. Everything else the report names was exercised: I read the upstream sync workflow's status check and copy step directly, and I pulled the cited failing
check-anchorsjob log, which reproduces verbatim (link: /development/comfy-router/limitations#request-bodies-are-capped,anchor: #request-bodies-are-capped (NOT FOUND)).Provenance
