Summary

 ci.yml (pull_request, push, schedule)
   static            # ruff, schema, zizmor, pre-commit, bandit: seconds
   typecheck         # parallel, unchanged
+  test ×4           needs: static
+  package-smoke ×2  needs: static
   windows-smoke     # windows-latest, stays ungated: no chain spans both queues

A PR that fails static no longer takes six more pool runners for the test matrix and package-smoke. That cuts CI cost during review sweeps, when many red pushes land at once.

Evidence

• Before: a lint failure still started 4 test legs and 2 package-smoke legs. Each one waits about 4 min for a pool boot and then runs the whole job.
• After: those 6 jobs show as skipped when static fails. On a green run they start after static finishes.
• pytest tests/test_ci_local.py: 27 passed. This PR's own run shows the new ordering.

Merge Danger

Door: two-way

Revert drops three lines (two needs: and one comment block).

Blast Radius: latency

A green PR now finishes later by the wall time of static plus one pool boot (about 4 min median). Required checks: when static fails, the skipped jobs don't block the merge by themselves, but the failing static check does.
