The PR Shepherd automation applies labels like `pr-shepherd:in_progress`, which the label validator rejected as invalid and blocked the PR. Add the `pr-shepherd:` prefix to the allowlist so these labels no longer trigger a block. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Please don't. Those checks were set on purpose to limit the tag addition for every new tools that keep being added quarter over quarter and are never taken care of after.
I would invite you to describe the need first, then we can define a set of labels for the tool if needed that will fit the repository conventions.
Additionally, the PR does not explain the motivation. It only states "I'm blocked, so I'm lifting enforcement".

What
Add the
pr-shepherd:prefix to thevalidCategoriesallowlist incheck-pull-request-labels.yaml.Why
The PR Shepherd automation applies labels such as
pr-shepherd:in_progress. TheValidate PR Label Formatworkflow only accepts labels matching a fixed set of prefixes, so these labels were flagged as invalid and the PR was blocked (a maintainer had to delete the bot comment to unblock). See e.g. #12034 (comment)Consequence check
validCategoriesis read in exactly one place (this filter); nothing else consumes it.pr-shepherd:label —check-pull-requests.yamlrequirestype:/comp:/inst:, anddraft-release-notes-on-tag.yamlonly mapscomp:/inst:(anypr-shepherd:label falls through to "other PRs").The change only removes the false-positive block; no downstream side effects.
