A cancel request does not stop a running step. The runner asks it to end, and a step that ignores the signal keeps going, bounded only by its own timeout-minutes -- 350 for a deploy. Meanwhile the concurrency group holds the newer run on pending until the occupant is terminal, not until it is cancel-requested. Measured on run 32859801382: the cancel was accepted at 15:27:45 and thirteen minutes later ten deploy jobs were still running and the newer run still had not started. The sweep now waits FORCE_CANCEL_AFTER_SECONDS and force-cancels whatever is still not completed. Cleanup steps are skipped for those, which is the price: the artefacts of an already superseded run help nobody. Only entry-cancel-superseded.yml sets the variable -- a closed pull request and a deleted branch have nothing waiting on the group, so they keep cancelling and walking away.

GitHub Workflow Helpers 🔧
This directory holds the shell helpers that GitHub Actions workflows under .github/workflows/ call. Helpers are grouped by responsibility into subfolders so each workflow file pulls only from the clusters it actually needs.
Subfolders 🗂️
| Subfolder | Responsibility |
|---|---|
| runner/ | Host-runner hygiene around image builds and deploys (disk, swap, Docker daemon, diagnostics). |
| cancel/ | Cancellation of in-progress workflow runs on PR-close and branch-delete events. |
| cleanup/ | Scheduled repository maintenance that prunes stale GitHub resources. |
| resolve/ | Derivation of structured workflow inputs and outputs from repository state. |
| sync/ | Ref synchronization before workflow jobs derive CI scope from git history. |
| update/ | The scheduled 🔄 Update versions pipeline (version bumps and PR open/refresh). |
| release/ | Release-time gates that decide whether a tagged commit may be released. |
A new helper MUST live in the subfolder that matches its responsibility. New responsibilities MAY motivate a new subfolder, but MUST NOT flatten back into the top level.
