 # --- trigger gating --------------------------------------------------------
+# Gitea >= 1.27 (breaking change go-gitea#37478, "improve support for reusable
+# workflows") runs a CALLED workflow with github.event_name = 'workflow_call'
+# instead of propagating the caller's event, so every consumer stub's trigger
+# arrived here as an unhandled event and the review silently self-skipped
+# (observed 2026-07-14: mort PRs #1445-#1447 got 1-second "success" runs).
+# Reclassify from the forwarded event payload: a comment body can only come
+# from issue_comment (its trigger-phrase + actor gates still apply below);
+# otherwise a PR number means a pull_request-shaped trigger (this also covers
+# dispatch-through-reusable, whose pr_number input populates PR — the draft
+# check degrades safely since IS_DRAFT defaults false). Neither → fall through
+# to the unhandled-event skip. Pre-1.27 servers still send the caller's event
+# name and never enter this branch.
