PR #788's skill run committed SUMMARY.md to the branch alongside its content commit (42267da) because /SUMMARY.md isn't in .gitignore -- `git add -A` during claude-code-action's auto-commit swept it up. The workflow's signals step reads and removes SUMMARY.md, but only from the working tree; the commit that added it sticks around. /GAPS.md and /NO_CHANGES.md are already gitignored for exactly this reason; SUMMARY.md was added in #785 but I missed adding the matching gitignore entry. With this in place, claude-code-action's `git add -A` will skip SUMMARY.md, the skill still writes it to disk, the signals step still reads + deletes it -- no commit involvement at all, which is how GAPS.md and NO_CHANGES.md already work.

Small follow-up to #785.
Problem
On PR #788's v0.24.0 run, `SUMMARY.md` landed on the branch alongside the skill's content commit (`42267da`). It shouldn't have — `SUMMARY.md` is a signal file the workflow's `Capture skill signal files` step is supposed to read + delete, not something to commit.
Cause
`/GAPS.md` and `/NO_CHANGES.md` are already in `.gitignore` for exactly this reason. `SUMMARY.md` was introduced in #785 but I missed adding the matching gitignore entry. `claude-code-action`'s `git add -A` during auto-commit then swept it up.
Fix
Add `/SUMMARY.md` to `.gitignore` alongside the existing signal-file entries. Matches how GAPS/NO_CHANGES are handled — skill writes to disk, workflow reads, neither ever hits a commit.
Current in-flight retry
Run 24787405392 (retry against PR #788) is still running as of this PR. It's using the workflow from `main` (which has the caps bump from #789) but the PR branch doesn't have the gitignore fix yet, so the retry's skill may commit another `SUMMARY.md`. The signals step's `rm SUMMARY.md` + commit-and-push's `git add -A` will clean it up in a deletion commit, so the final state is correct but the history is ugly.
After this gitignore fix merges, the user can optionally re-merge main into PR #788's branch for a clean future run; for any fresh Renovate PRs, the fix applies automatically.
