+# Runs `npm update` against both npm projects so transitive packages move to their
+# latest in-range release. Dependabot opens pull requests for dependencies named in
+# a manifest; nested transitive packages otherwise sit at whatever version was
+# resolved when their parent was last touched, until an advisory lands on them.
+#
+# The job verifies the refreshed tree before opening the pull request. That pull
+# request carries no checks of its own, because GitHub does not start workflow runs
+# for events raised with GITHUB_TOKEN — the verification lives in this run's log.
+# Push any commit to the branch to run the normal CI workflows on it.
