It's an alternative workflow to retest-konflux-builds.yml. The periodic version uses a single GraphQL query to efficiently fetch all open PRs with failures, avoiding per-PR API calls.

Note: ⚠️ An existing retest-konflux-builds.yml will be removed in the separate PR after migrating all repos to the periodic workflow

Testing

Tested on different pero on this PR https://github.com/stackrox/test-konflux-repo/pull/5

  • Add retest on comment on failed Konflux check
  • Remove stale retest comment if new commit with failed check pushed
  • retest up to max_retries

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added scheduled scanning of open pull requests for failed Konflux checks and automatic retries.
    • Added configurable retry limits, regex-based check exclusions, retest commands, and Konflux application ID settings.
    • Added automatic application-name detection and safeguards to avoid retesting outdated pull-request revisions.
    • Added cleanup of obsolete retest comments and label-based opt-out support.
    • Added serialized workflow execution to prevent overlapping retest runs.
  • Documentation

    • Updated setup instructions and configuration examples for periodic retesting.

Walkthrough

The pull request updates periodic Konflux retesting to use paginated pull-request scanning, configurable exclusion patterns, input validation, workflow concurrency, head-SHA checks, stale comment cleanup, and per-commit retry limits.

Changes

Konflux retesting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow contract and usage
.github/workflows/periodic-retest-konflux-builds.yml, .github/workflows/README.md
Defines the exclusion-pattern input, repository concurrency, permissions, and scheduled or manual workflow usage.
Paginated failed-check discovery
.github/workflows/periodic-retest-konflux-builds.yml
Validates positive integer inputs, retrieves all query pages, resolves the app prefix, and filters failed checks with the configured regex.
Head validation and retest comments
.github/workflows/periodic-retest-konflux-builds.yml
Skips pull requests with changed heads, removes prior-commit comments, counts current-commit retries, and posts comments within the retry limit.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 43791

This PR adds periodic Konflux retesting, but the current workflow may fail in caller repositories without explicit permissions, miss eligible failed checks, exceed retry limits for decimal inputs, or post stale or duplicate comments during concurrent updates. These bounded correctness and integration risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

In @.github/workflows/periodic-retest-konflux-builds.yml:
- Around line 31-33: Add repository-scoped concurrency to the
periodic-retest-failed-konflux-builds job, using a stable group key that
serializes runs for each repository and setting cancel-in-progress to false.
Apply the same concurrency control to the additionally affected workflow
section.
- Around line 70-77: Update the workflow’s GraphQL query to paginate every
eligibility-affecting connection: the pull-request search, each commit’s
checkSuites, and each suite’s checkRuns. Retrieve pageInfo and cursors, then
iterate through all pages so later open PRs, Konflux suites, and failed runs are
included; only use explicit limits if the workflow documents and intentionally
supports them.
- Around line 72-91: Update the PR processing flow around the GraphQL query and
the loop covering comment deletion, retry counting, and retest posting to
retrieve each PR’s current head SHA and revalidate it immediately before any
comment mutation or count. Skip the PR when the head has changed since the query
snapshot, preventing actions based on stale failed checks.
- Around line 10-14: Validate the workflow_call numeric inputs max_retries and
konflux_app_id before query execution and retry logic, requiring integer values
that are not negative; reject invalid decimal or negative inputs early so Bash
comparisons and GraphQL Int! variables receive only valid values.

In @.github/workflows/README.md:
- Line 84: Update the platform name in the workflow documentation example from
“github” to the official capitalization “GitHub,” without changing the workflow
filename or surrounding instructions.

Added a few comments to the Coderabbit ones.
I think the pagination is a valid concern, the rest are minor things.

Just from looking at this: What about create-custom-snapshot and checks? Are you suggesting to filter them out?

Flipped the logic. Added check_name_exclude_pattern which is conforma by default

While it is true tha our Konflux App is called "Red Hat Konflux", not all of them are: For example, I recently used a staging Konflux cluster, where the GH app name was "Konflux Staging": https://github.com/st3penta/golden-container/runs/90574648533

Can we expose this as a workflow parameter, next to the app ID?
Or use GH API to find the name from the app ID?

Good idea, derive suffix by app ID

I'm guessing you're suggesting to keep the suffix empty for our workflows?

Replaced check_name_suffix with check_name_exclude_pattern

Add caller-level permissions for the reusable workflow.

If the caller repository uses read-only default workflow permissions, add pull-requests: write, issues: write, checks: read, and contents: read under jobs.retest.permissions. The called workflow cannot elevate the caller token, so API reads and retest comments can fail.
