PR Status Check - Ready for Maintainer Review

✅ What's Working:

• ✓ No code conflicts - branch is up-to-date with main
• ✓ DCO check passed
• ✓ Copy labels check passed
• ✓ check-files passed
• ✓ Author has enabled "Allow edits by maintainers"

❌ Blocking Issues:

1. Gradle Check Failed - Jenkins build #65691 returned FAILURE

   • The gradle-check job failed after 6m
   • check-result intentionally failed as a consequence
   • Action needed: Investigate and fix the gradle build failure, or re-run if it's a flaky test

2. Code Owner Review Required - Waiting on review from opensearch-project/opensearch-core-maintainers

   • Action needed: Code owner review and approval

3. 7 Workflows Awaiting Approval - The following workflows require maintainer approval to run:

   • Changelog Verifier
   • Detect Breaking Changes
   • Gradle Assemble
   • CodeQL
   • Dependabot PR actions
   • Gradle Precommit
   • Action needed: Maintainer needs to approve these workflows

4. 8 Pending Checks - Waiting for status to be reported:

   • assemble (21, macos-13, ubuntu-latest, windows-latest)
   • precommit (21, macos-13, ubuntu-latest, windows-latest)
   • Validate
   • verify-changelog

🎯 Next Steps:

This PR requires maintainer attention to:

1. Approve the pending workflows
2. Review and approve as code owner
3. Re-run or investigate the failed Gradle check

Once these steps are completed, the PR should be ready for merge.

Automation Status Report

✅ Automation Attempts Completed

I've checked all available UI options, settings, and potential bot commands for automation capabilities. Here's what I found:

❌ Automation Limitations

Cannot be automated without maintainer privileges:

1. Approve Pending Workflows (7 awaiting) - Requires maintainer approval to run:

   • Changelog Verifier
   • Detect Breaking Changes
   • Gradle Assemble
   • CodeQL
   • Dependabot PR actions
   • Gradle Precommit
   • (1 more)

2. Grant Code Owner Review - Requires approval from opensearch-project/opensearch-core-maintainers

3. Rerun Failed Gradle Checks - No rerun button available in UI for Jenkins-based checks. The failed checks are:

   • Gradle Check (Jenkins) / check-result
   • Gradle Check (Jenkins) / gradle-check (build #65691)

4. Merge Button - Currently blocked due to missing code owner review

🎯 Required Maintainer Actions

To unblock this PR, a maintainer needs to:

1. Click "Approve and run" on the 7 pending workflows
2. Provide code owner review and approval
3. Re-trigger the failed Gradle check (likely via bot command or Jenkins UI)

ℹ️ Why Automation is Limited

GitHub's security model restricts these actions to users with:

• Write access to the repository (for workflow approvals)
• Code owner status (for required reviews)
• Maintainer permissions (for check reruns)

These restrictions prevent unauthorized users from bypassing security checks or approval processes.
