# THE TWO CANARIES OVER THE MATRIX, NIGHTLY (design 2026-11-12 §5.7).
#
# tests/canary/c (C89 on POSIX alone: two programs from one set of sources, a
# resource script written once, a non-local jump, files, the arguments) and
# tests/canary/cxx (C++23 modules, `import std`, exceptions, threads, a test)
# are built, linked statically, run, tested and packed for every identity the
# host's rows of tests/canary/matrix.tsv name, with this commit's mcpp. Each row
# states what the step does (ok, fails with a note, n/a); a cell that differs
# from its row, either way, fails the job, so the table is a declaration that
# a change of behaviour corrects. The report of each host is the job's
# summary and its artifact `canary-report-<host>`; a statement such as "every
# identity builds" cites a run of this workflow.
#
# Nightly, by hand, and on a pull request labelled `ci:canaries`; no pull
# request waits for it otherwise.
