[workflow-patrol] Workflow drift detected: duplicate-issue-detector missing runtime-setup wiring

[github-actions]

Findings

1. gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md is missing the standard runtime setup structure

Which workflow deviates

• .github/workflows/gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md

Majority pattern
Across workflow sources, the same three elements appear together in 55/56 workflows (98.2%):

1. imports includes gh-aw-fragments/runtime-setup.md
2. on.workflow_call.inputs includes setup-commands
3. steps include a conditional Repo-specific setup step (if: $\{\{ inputs.setup-commands != '' }})

Examples that follow this pattern:

• .github/workflows/gh-aw-breaking-change-detector.md:7,34-38,83-89
• .github/workflows/gh-aw-bug-hunter.md:7,34-38,84-90
• .github/workflows/gh-aw-test-coverage-detector.md:7,34-38,100-106

What is different in the outlier
In .github/workflows/gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md:

• No runtime-setup.md import (:4-10)
• No setup-commands workflow_call input (:18-43)
• No Repo-specific setup step before task execution (:67-90)

Why this looks like drift (not intentional)
The workflow still follows other shared structure (e.g., shared fragments, additional-instructions, allowed-bot-users, messages-footer, safe outputs), so only the runtime-setup trio being absent is likely accidental divergence from the common template.

Duplicate check
Open [workflow-patrol] issues currently track other drifts (#567, #574, #631, #559), not this one.
/tmp/previous-findings.json is empty for this agent run.

Suggested fix

Add the standard runtime-setup wiring to .github/workflows/gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md:

• import gh-aw-fragments/runtime-setup.md
• add on.workflow_call.inputs.setup-commands
• add the conditional Repo-specific setup step using eval "$SETUP_COMMANDS"

Suggested Actions

• Add gh-aw-fragments/runtime-setup.md to imports in gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md
• Add the setup-commands workflow_call input in gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md
• Add the Repo-specific setup step guarded by if: $\{\{ inputs.setup-commands != '' }} in gh-aw-duplicate-issue-detector.md
