ci: add GitHub Actions workflow for shellcheck + bash -n + smoke tests

[pstuart]

Summary

Auto-scan 2026-05-05 deep-dispatch pass on Barista. Adds first GitHub Actions CI workflow per fleet pattern (10th this session: better-budget #41, stock-trainer #35, Better-legacy #36, bookmarks #27, save-for-later #38, flyck #61, better-bible-trivia #34, better-pastoral-care #27, tennis-story #76, this one).

Changes Made

ci: add GitHub Actions workflow for shellcheck + bash -n + smoke tests

• What: added .github/workflows/ci.yml.
• Why: no CI existed; every change relied on local runs.
• How: ubuntu-latest runner, runs:
  • bash -n syntax check on every .sh file
  • shellcheck informationally (NOT a hard gate — see "What Was NOT Changed")
  • tests/test_sandbox.sh smoke suite
• Logs shellcheck --version + bash --version so baseline drifts are visible going forward — issue tooling: ShellCheck baseline drift — 234 findings vs dossier's 50; propose .shellcheckrc to stabilize #21 was caused by an invisible ShellCheck 0.10.x → 0.11.0 bump that 7× SC2155 noise.

What Was NOT Changed

• Issue tooling: ShellCheck baseline drift — 234 findings vs dossier's 50; propose .shellcheckrc to stabilize #21 ShellCheck baseline drift / .shellcheckrc policy decision — author has not engaged in 8 days (across 5 prior scans). Per Lesson 4 protocol, this is now pure-skip territory. The CI workflow keeps shellcheck informational so the existing 234-finding baseline doesn't block all PRs while tooling: ShellCheck baseline drift — 234 findings vs dossier's 50; propose .shellcheckrc to stabilize #21 awaits author resolution. Once the author picks a path (the issue body offers 3), a follow-up PR can either:
  • Adopt option 1 (project-wide .shellcheckrc disabling SC2155+SC2034, dropping baseline to ~27) and gate CI on shellcheck strictly,
  • Adopt option 2 (pin shellcheck version), or
  • Adopt option 3 (accept 234 as the baseline, no policy file).
• 234 ShellCheck findings — within the noise tolerance of the 230-finding baseline at HEAD 6c48e52; still tracked in the existing tooling: ShellCheck baseline drift issue.

Verification

• bash -n barista.sh install.sh modules/*.sh tests/*.sh: PASS
• bash tests/test_sandbox.sh: 4/4 PASS
• Workflow YAML lints with actionlint (passing — verified locally; standard concurrency + permissions stanza)

Step 5d Carry-Forwards Re-Verified

• tooling: ShellCheck baseline drift — 234 findings vs dossier's 50; propose .shellcheckrc to stabilize #21 ShellCheck baseline drift awaiting author — STILL VALID, 8 days unanswered, 5th unanswered scan, AT pure-skip threshold per Lesson 4. Future scans treat tooling: ShellCheck baseline drift — 234 findings vs dossier's 50; propose .shellcheckrc to stabilize #21 as resolved-by-defer-indefinitely until author engages.
• Source byte-identical to PR Scan 2026-04-21: grep -F for fixed-string timestamp match #20 — verified via git rev-parse HEAD. PR Scan 2026-04-21: grep -F for fixed-string timestamp match #20 is the latest source-touching commit.
