Documentation Updates - 2026-02-23

This PR updates the documentation based on features merged in the last 24 hours.

Features Documented

Changes Made

  • Updated docs/src/content/docs/reference/frontmatter.md to add a new Private Workflows (private:) section documenting the new field, its behavior, and a clarifying note that it only restricts gh aw add (not repository visibility)
  • Updated docs/src/content/docs/guides/packaging-imports.md to add a note in the "Adding Workflows" section, warning users that workflows marked private: true cannot be added from external repositories

Merged PRs Referenced

Notes

PR #17803 (CI trigger token) already included its own documentation updates to auth.mdx, faq.md, and safe-outputs.md. PR #17801 regenerated frontmatter-full.md but left the main human-readable frontmatter.md without the new private: field — this PR fills that gap.

Generated by Daily Documentation Updater

  • expires on Feb 24, 2026, 4:25 AM UTC

Documents the new `private: true` frontmatter field that prevents
workflows from being installed into other repositories via `gh aw add`.

- Adds Private Workflows section to frontmatter reference
- Adds note about private workflows to the packaging/imports guide

For consistency with other boolean fields like strict: (line 354), consider mentioning the default value. The field defaults to false, meaning workflows are not private unless explicitly marked. This could be added to line 59, for example: "Mark a workflow as private to prevent it from being installed into other repositories via gh aw add. Defaults to false."

Suggested change
Mark a workflow as private to prevent it from being installed into other repositories via `gh aw add`.
Mark a workflow as private to prevent it from being installed into other repositories via `gh aw add`. Defaults to `false`.
