chore(ci): drop macOS and Windows from CI matrix#60
Merged
Conversation
Edify is a pure-Python wheel (`py3-none-any.whl`) with no compiled extensions, no platform-specific imports, and no filesystem or subprocess code paths. The only platform-relevant surface is stdlib `re`, which is behaviorally identical across CPython on Linux/macOS/Windows. The macOS and Windows jobs were buying ~zero signal and produced false negatives (a transient DNS error on `py312 (macos)` blocked the v0.3.0 release rerun). Matrix goes from 27 jobs (9 versions x 3 OSes) to 9 (9 versions x ubuntu only). `check` and `docs` were already Linux-only. Branch protection on `main` already updated: required contexts went from 31 to 13 (Linux matrix + `check`, `docs`, `Analyze (python)`, `build`). Closes #59

Summary
Edify is a pure-Python wheel (
py3-none-any.whl) with no compiled extensions, no platform-specific imports, and no filesystem/subprocess code paths. The multi-OS CI matrix was buying ~zero real signal and produced false negatives (a transient DNS error onpy312 (macos)blocked the v0.3.0 release rerun).Drop macOS and Windows from the matrix. Linux-only from here on.
Matrix change
checkanddocs.checkanddocs.windows/macosmatrix entries deleted; no other changes.checkanddocswere already Linux-only and are unaffected.Analyze (python)(CodeQL) andbuild(workflow-level status) are unrelated to the matrix and remain.Branch protection
Already updated in lockstep —
required_status_checks.contextsonmainwent from 31 → 13:Without that pre-update, the removed contexts would block this PR forever (the protection rule waits for jobs that no longer exist).
