Every branch push runs the full codehub pipeline (builds + 9 natlab shards) even with no PR open, taking runner slots from reviewed work. Open a (draft) PR to get CI on a branch; main and release/** still trigger unconditionally.
Picks up the fix cancelling outdated queued (pending/created) pipelines, not only running ones.

Problem
Every branch push triggers the full internal GitLab pipeline (all builds + 9 parallel natlab shards) even when the branch has no PR — WIP pushes consume constrained natlab runner slots and queue reviewed work for hours.
Solution
Gate the
push-event trigger on an open PR for the branch (check-branch-has-prjob,gh api pulls?head=).main,release/**, merge-queue andlabeledevents trigger unconditionally. To get CI on a WIP branch, open a draft PR.☑️ Definition of Done checklist
