Open CLI Collective Shared GitHub Automation

This repository owns the shared GitHub Actions and reusable workflows used by Open CLI Collective repositories. It is the automation source of truth; sibling repositories should link here instead of copying action or workflow mechanics into local agent guidance.

Referencing Shared Automation

When another repository or agent entrypoint references shared automation, the GitHub URL is the source of truth. An adjacent local path may be included as a convenience for workspaces that keep the Open CLI Collective repos side by side, but it is only a shortcut. The local path should be correct relative to the file that contains the reference.

Use this shape for composite actions:

Source of truth: https://github.com/open-cli-collective/.github/tree/main/actions/go-build
Local convenience copy, if present: `../.github/actions/go-build`

Use this shape for reusable workflows:

Source of truth: https://github.com/open-cli-collective/.github/blob/main/.github/workflows/auto-release.yml
Local convenience copy, if present: `../.github/.github/workflows/auto-release.yml`

Policy Documents

The repo-axis policy and behavior belong in cli-common; this repository contains the automation that implements those standards.
