CI/CD Overview¶

All automation runs on GitHub Actions. There are 6 active workflows, 1 reusable workflow, and 1 security scanner.

Workflow Map¶

CI Pipeline Jobs¶

graph TD
    A[Detect Changes] --> B[Backend Lint]
    A --> C[Backend Tests]
    A --> D[Frontend Lint]
    A --> E[Frontend Tests]
    A --> F[Frontend Build]
    B & C & D & E & F --> G[E2E Tests - Playwright]
    A --> H[Security Audit]
    A --> I[Commit Lint]

Cost Optimizations¶

• Concurrency groups cancel obsolete in-flight runs on new commits
• Path filtering skips backend jobs if only frontend changed (and vice versa)
• paths-ignore on release-beta.yml skips deployment for doc-only commits
• pip caching via setup-python built-in cache — saves ~20s per Python job
• Playwright binary caching — saves ~40s per E2E run after first cache hit
