Problem. tests.yml grouped every run by ref with cancel-in-progress: true. When PRs merged into dev close together on 2026-11-03, the full push runs for #143 (0de79321) and #144 (b12143a1) were cancelled. The next run, for the #140 docs merge, correctly skipped the app jobs, so dev's new code had no full push run. A manual rerun of run 41680042746 then passed.

Change (only the concurrency block):

group: ${{ github.event_name == 'push' && github.ref == 'refs/heads/dev' && format('tests-dev-{0}', github.sha) || format('tests-{0}', github.ref) }}
cancel-in-progress: ${{ !(github.event_name == 'push' && github.ref == 'refs/heads/dev') }}

• Every push to dev gets its own group, keyed by commit SHA, and is never cancelled.
• PRs, main and release/** are unchanged: same group by ref, and superseded runs are still cancelled.
• Unchanged: job names (the required checks mac, conventional, release-tooling, android), permissions (contents: read), the classifier and every fail-closed rule.
• Trade-off: busy dev merge streaks use more runner time, because every code merge now finishes its full run. Docs-only merges still skip the app jobs.

Validation

• GitHub's own expression evaluator (@actions/expressions 0.3.61) on representative events:
  • Two pushes to the same PR share tests-refs/pull/150/merge and cancel.
  • Another PR gets its own group.
  • Two dev merges get separate tests-dev-<sha> groups with cancel=false.
  • main, release/2.1.0 and a dev2 lookalike stay tests-<ref> with cancel=true.
• Classification, with the step's script run against synthetic commits on this branch:
  • Docs and issue-form merges to dev skip the app jobs.
  • Code, workflow, classifier, unknown-path and multi-commit pushes to dev run full CI, as do docs pushes to main and release/*, and this workflow-changing PR.
• check-release-workflows.rb reports every workflow fail-closed, and the classifier unit tests pass.

This PR's own CI is full, because it changes a workflow.
