PR Summary

Medium Risk
Changes workflow dispatch semantics for table group auto-run, which affects which rows execute and whether existing cell state is preserved. Scope is small and moves toward safer non-manual behavior.

Overview
Fixes group auto-run so it no longer behaves like a manual full rerun.

dispatchGroupAutoRun now calls runWorkflowColumn with mode: 'new' and isManualRun: false, so enabling auto-run only fills never-attempted rows and does not cancel in-flight work or clear completed cells. Adds a focused test covering those dispatch args.

Greptile Summary

The PR changes workflow-group auto-run dispatches to use non-manual new semantics, preserving existing cell results and active work.

• Runs only group cells that have not previously been attempted.
• Prevents automatic dispatches from cancelling active executions or clearing completed cells.
• Adds a focused application-level test for the dispatch parameters.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge with no actionable correctness or security issues identified.

The changed dispatch parameters align with the existing workflow-column eligibility, clearing, and cancellation behavior, while the added test covers the intended application call.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
apps/sim/lib/table/application/groups.ts	Changes group auto-run dispatches from manual all-row reruns to non-manual new-row processing, consistent with the underlying eligibility and cancellation contracts.
apps/sim/lib/table/application/groups.test.ts	Adds focused coverage asserting that group creation dispatches auto-run with mode new and isManualRun: false.
