# Decides whether a change needs a build. The one place on GitHub that knows
# which paths do not: .claude/ and the root process documents. Workflows call
# this instead of filtering by path in their triggers, so the list is not
# repeated per workflow and a required check still reports (see maven.yml).
# The Jenkinsfile carries the same pattern for the ASF Jenkins build; keep
# the two in step.
