# PRIORITY SKIP — workflow-self-modification.
# When a PR modifies ANY .github/workflows/*.yml file, the
# anthropics/claude-code-action refuses to run by design (its
# security feature: a PR that modifies the reviewer cannot have the
# reviewer run against itself). Without a skip here, the step fails
# with a misleading "exceeded turn limit" error after 30s. This
# case hits EVERY Dependabot-generated PR that bumps the pin, plus
# any manual caller-workflow edit. Short-circuit cleanly; a real
# review runs on the next non-workflow PR after merge.
