Closes #337

Changes

  • Add .squad/skills/self-authored-pr-gate/SKILL.md documenting lead-gate workflow for self-authored PRs where GitHub blocks self-approval
  • Update .squad/agents/aragorn/history.md with PR Upgrade Aspire and markdown package versions #336 gate findings and decision
  • Verified no orphaned branches remain; local/remote state is clean

Testing

  • Markdown lint: ✅ all .squad/ files pass
  • Code formatting: ✅ no changes needed
  • Release build: ✅ MyBlog.slnx builds cleanly
  • Pre-push gates: ✅ all passed

Context

This skill documents the pattern discovered when Boromir's self-authored PR #336 (Aspire/markdown upgrade) required Aragorn's lead review without self-approval. GitHub returns 422: Can not approve your own pull request, so the gate relied on CI/Copilot/Codecov checks instead.

…tory

- Document self-authored PR gate workflow for lead-only reviews (GitHub blocks self-approval)
- Record PR #336 gate decisions: CI green, Copilot clean, specialist reviews collected, squash merged
- Add learning: self-approval blocked by GitHub; lead gate can proceed with documented checks

1. CI is fully green (build, tests, security, coverage checks).
2. Copilot automated review has no unresolved bug/security findings.
3. Codecov shows no material regression (>= 1% decrease blocks merge).
Comment thread .squad/agents/aragorn/history.md Outdated
- Ran parallel specialist reviews (Aragorn + Boromir perspectives) and merged with squash into `dev`.
- Synced local `dev`, pruned merged `squad/*` branches, and removed the merged remote branch.

🚫 PR gate status: NOT review-ready yet

I ran the Aragorn gate for PR #338. Core gates are green (CI/checks, mergeable, branch naming, and Closes #337), but merge is blocked on unresolved review findings:

  1. Copilot inline finding (process compatibility): .squad/skills/self-authored-pr-gate/SKILL.md front matter is missing domain and source, which breaks alignment with the repo skill template expectations.
  2. Copilot inline finding (gate semantics): The >= 1% Codecov wording should align with current policy language (investigate/explain vs unconditional hard-block) or explicitly define exception handling.
  3. Copilot inline finding (heading hierarchy): history.md learning subsection should follow established heading structure for readability/consistency.

🔒 Blocking action posted: author should address these review findings on the same branch, then rerun gate.

After fixes are pushed and checks stay green, I will re-run the final merge gate immediately.

…section

- Changed 'Learnings' subsection under PR #336 from H2 to H3 for consistency
- Now matches established pattern: H2 for date-based entries, H3 for subsections
- Resolves PR #338 heading hierarchy blocker

… semantics

- Add 'domain: PR governance, code review, CI/CD' and 'source: earned' front matter
- Revise Codecov check to emphasize investigation/explanation over unconditional hard block
- Align language with repo policy: ≥1% decrease requires investigation, not automatic merge block

Closes #337

- Document front matter alignment and skill template compliance
- Record Codecov policy semantics decision: investigate-and-explain vs. hard block
- Learning: skill front matter is structural; Codecov gate intent is transparency
