# On every push to main, ping TechAPI so it bumps its TechEngine submodule
# pointer to the new commit. The bump itself happens in TechAPI's bump-engine.yml
# (triggered by this repository_dispatch); TechEngine only fires the signal.
#
# No loop: TechAPI's bump commit lands in TechAPI, never pushed back here.
# Requires TECHAPI_TOKEN (Contents: write on GetTechAPI/TechAPI) — already set.
on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
    # Don't ping TechAPI for commits that only move the TechAPI submodule pointer
    # (bump-techapi.yml's own bumps): TechAPI doesn't need to track those, and
    # skipping them keeps each real change to exactly one bump — symmetric with
    # TechAPI's notify-engine.yml ignoring its TechEngine gitlink.
