-# This workflow makes CLA checks work with merge queue entries. Merge groups get
-# a repository-owned `CLA Gate` commit status on the synthetic queue SHA, while
-# pull request/status events use this Actions job result based on CLA Assistant's
-# raw `license/cla` status.

-# SECURITY: Pull request runs must still check out trusted base-branch code, not
-# PR code, before running repository scripts.
+# This workflow publishes a repository-owned commit status named `CLA Gate`.
+# Make `CLA Gate` required instead of requiring CLA Assistant's raw `license/cla`
+# status directly. That lets merge queue entries pass without waiting for CLA
+# Assistant to report on the synthetic merge-group SHA, while pull requests still
+# mirror the real CLA Assistant result.
