name: "Detect backend-relevant changes"
description: >-
  Classify the pull request's changed files with .circleci/scripts/classify_changes.sh
  and expose decision=run|skip. decision=skip means only ui/**, **.md or **.mdx files
  changed, so callers can short-circuit expensive steps while the job still completes
  successfully and satisfies its required status check. The decision defaults to run for
  any non pull_request event or whenever the changed set cannot be resolved, so tests are
  never skipped when the classification is uncertain.

outputs:
  decision:
    description: "run when backend-relevant files changed, otherwise skip"
    value: ${{ steps.classify.outputs.decision }}
