docs(CLAUDE): codecov posts check runs on PR heads, not commit statuses#3039
Merged
Conversation
A CI monitor polled the combined-status API (/commits/<sha>/status) for codecov/patch and concluded codecov had stopped posting. Nothing was broken: codecov's GitHub App posts check runs on PR heads (statuses appear only on main pushes), and check runs never show up in the legacy status API. The check run also lands several minutes after the code-coverage job finishes (~9 min on #3035). State this in the Coverage section so merge gating polls gh pr checks rather than the status API.

A CI monitor watching PR #3035 polled the combined-status API (
gh api .../commits/<sha>/status) forcodecov/patchand concluded codecov had stopped posting on PR heads. Investigation showed nothing is broken: codecov's GitHub App posts check runs on PR head commits (commit statuses appear only on main pushes), and check runs never show up in the legacy status API. This has been the case since at least April (oldest surviving PR head, #1743). The check run also lands several minutes after thecode-coveragejob finishes (~9 min on #3035).This adds one sentence to the Coverage section so merge gating polls
