… from @claude (normal ok), and then given that in isolation the PR was fine due to having hardcoded draft schemas (though it was deliberately only ever going to work against a PR deployed version of the API that was also draft), decided to enable auto-merge, such that the PR actually merged and luckily I caught the CI/CD run and locked deployments, however, it would have taken down the site and pointed it to staging.
