feat: Add validate-pr composite action by stephanie-anderson · Pull Request #153 · getsentry/github-workflows

stephanie-anderson · 2026-03-27T17:17:11Z

Add a reusable composite action that validates non-maintainer PRs against
contribution guidelines. This was previously a 327-line workflow being
copy-pasted across SDK repos (first rolled out in getsentry/sentry-python#4233,
then getsentry/sentry-cocoa#7743, etc).

The action does two things:

Validates issue references — non-maintainer PRs must reference a GitHub
issue where the author and a maintainer of the target repo have discussed
the approach. PRs that don't meet this are closed with a descriptive comment.
Enforces draft status — all PRs must start as drafts. Non-draft PRs are
converted automatically.

The JS logic is extracted into standalone script files (scripts/validate-pr.js,
scripts/enforce-draft.js) for testability, matching the pattern used by the
danger/ action.

Each SDK repo's workflow shrinks from 327 lines to ~15:

name: Validate PRon:
pull_request_target:
types: [opened, reopened]jobs:
validate-pr:

Add a composite action that validates non-maintainer PRs against contribution guidelines. Checks that PRs reference a GitHub issue with prior maintainer discussion, and enforces draft status on all new PRs. Extracts the validation logic into standalone JS scripts for testability, matching the pattern used by the danger action. Previously this workflow was being copy-pasted across SDK repos (327 lines each). Now each repo only needs a ~15-line caller workflow.

Awful addition that is only mentioned in 1/26 repos where it's used.
