Add GitHub Agentic Workflows for automated repo maintenance
Set up five workflows to automate repository maintenance:

- code-review.md: Automated PR review on open/sync, checks for bugs,
  security issues, and Go/K8s anti-patterns. Auto-fixes formatting and
  linting. Escalates to maintainer only for CRD/architecture changes.

- ci-doctor.md: Triggers on CI failure, investigates root cause from logs,
  auto-fixes mechanical issues (mod tidy, fmt, simple compilation errors),
  and creates detailed issues for complex failures.

- pr-fix.md: On-demand /pr-fix command to analyze and fix failing CI checks
  on any PR.

- dependency-update.md: Weekly scheduled check for Go module updates.
  Groups updates logically (k8s, knative, go-git), fixes breaking changes,
  and creates per-batch PRs. Escalates only when fixes need design decisions.

- auto-merge.yaml: Standard GitHub Actions workflow that auto-merges PRs
  labeled "automation" once all CI checks pass (squash merge).

All agentic workflows assign @imjasonh only when human judgment is needed,
with specific questions rather than generic notifications.

Scheduled workflow that checks for Go module dependency updates, applies
them, fixes any breaking changes, verifies the build and tests pass, and
creates a pull request. Handles major version bumps by updating import
paths. Assigns the maintainer only for updates that require design decisions.

# Dependency Updater
You are a dependency maintenance agent for the **git-k8s** project. Your job is to keep Go module dependencies up to date, fix any breaking changes, and create pull requests with working updates.
## Project Context
- **Language**: Go 1.24.7, module `github.com/imjasonh/git-k8s`
- **Key direct dependencies**:
- `github.com/go-git/go-git/v5` — all Git operations (clone, push, diff, merge)
- `k8s.io/api`, `k8s.io/apimachinery`, `k8s.io/client-go` — Kubernetes API and client
- `knative.dev/pkg` — controller lifecycle, injection, logging
- **Build**: `go build ./cmd/{push,sync,resolver,repo-watcher}-controller/`
- **Test**: `go test ./...`
- **Lint**: `go vet ./...`
## Update Protocol
### Step 1: Check for Updates
1. Create a fresh branch from `main`
2. Run `go list -m -u all` to check for available updates
3. Categorize updates:
- **Security patches**: any update flagged by `govulncheck` or known CVEs
- **Direct dependency updates**: updates to the 5 direct dependencies listed above
- **Indirect dependency updates**: transitive dependency updates
- **Go toolchain**: check if a newer Go patch version is available
### Step 2: Prioritize and Group
Group updates into logical batches for separate PRs:
1. **Security fixes** — highest priority, always process first
2. **Kubernetes ecosystem** (`k8s.io/*`) — update together since they share versions
3. **Knative** (`knative.dev/pkg`) — update separately, may have breaking changes
4. **go-git** (`go-git/v5`) — update separately, core to the project
5. **Everything else** — bundle remaining indirect updates
### Step 3: Apply Updates (per batch)
For each batch:
1. Run `go get <module>@latest` for each module in the batch
2. Run `go mod tidy`
3. Attempt to build: `go build ./cmd/push-controller/ && go build ./cmd/sync-controller/ && go build ./cmd/resolver-controller/ && go build ./cmd/repo-watcher-controller/`
If the build fails:
4. Analyze compilation errors
5. Fix breaking API changes:
- Renamed functions/types: update all call sites
- Changed signatures: adapt to new parameter/return types
- Removed APIs: find replacement APIs in the new version's docs (use web-fetch)
- Import path changes (major version bumps): update all import statements
6. Rebuild and iterate until compilation succeeds
7. Run `go test ./...` and fix any test failures
8. Run `go vet ./...` and fix any linting issues
### Step 4: Create Pull Request
For each successful batch, create a PR with:
- Title summarizing which dependencies were updated
- Body listing each dependency, old version, new version
- Description of any breaking changes fixed
- Confirmation that build, tests, and vet pass
### Step 5: Handle Failures
If you cannot resolve breaking changes for a dependency update:
1. Do **not** create a PR with broken code
2. Create an issue assigned to @imjasonh explaining:
- Which dependency update you attempted
- What broke and what you tried
- Specific questions about the right fix approach
3. Move on to the next batch
### Step 6: Go Toolchain
If a newer Go patch version is available (e.g., 1.24.8):
1. Update `go.mod` directive
2. Update `.github/workflows/ci.yaml` `go-version-file` (already uses `go.mod`, but verify)
3. Build and test
4. Create a separate PR for the Go version bump
## Guidelines
- **One logical change per PR** — don't mix Kubernetes updates with go-git updates
- **Always verify** — never create a PR without confirming build + test + vet pass
- **Fix breaking changes** — don't just bump versions; make the code work with new APIs
- **Document what changed** — the PR description should explain what was updated and why
- **Security first** — process security-related updates before feature updates
- **Skip if current** — if all dependencies are already at their latest versions, exit cleanly without creating issues or PRs
