Label PR based on title #12460

name: Label PR based on title
# PROCESS
#
# 1. Fetch PR details previously saved from untrusted location
# 2. Parse details for safety
# 3. Label PR based on semantic title (e.g., area, change type)
# USAGE
#
# NOTE: meant to be used with ./.github/workflows/record_pr.yml
#
# Security Note:
#
# This workflow depends on "Record PR" workflow that runs in an untrusted location (forks) instead of `pull_request_target`.
# This enforces zero trust where "Record PR" workflow always runs on fork with zero permissions on GH_TOKEN.
# When "Record PR" completes, this workflow runs in our repository with the appropriate permissions and sanitize inputs.
#
# Coupled with "Approve GitHub Action to run on forks", we have confidence no privilege can be escalated,
# since any malicious change would need to be approved, and upon social engineering, it'll have zero permissions.
