custom-job.yaml declares no secrets in its workflow_call and reads the secrets context in exactly one place, guarded by the optional alternative-gh-token-secret-name input. None of these jobs pass that input, so the Run script step's GH_TOKEN falls back to github.token, which is available either way. AWS auth is OIDC through vars.AWS_ROLE_ARN and id-token: write rather than a secret, and the shared-actions steps are composite actions, which cannot read the secrets context at all. That makes the inheritance unused here, so it and its zizmor suppression go. Limited to the jobs this PR already touches; the other 29 callers in pr.yaml are left alone.

GitHub Actions inputs context available workflow_dispatch workflow_call push trigger undefined context expression
💡 Result:
The inputs context in GitHub Actions is strictly limited to workflows triggered by the workflow_dispatch event (manually) or the workflow_call event (reusable workflows) [1][2][3]. It is not available for the push trigger [4][5]. Key points regarding the availability and behavior of the inputs context: 1. Trigger Availability: The inputs context is only populated when a workflow is triggered by workflow_dispatch or workflow_call [1][2]. If you attempt to reference the inputs context in a workflow triggered by a push event, the values will be undefined (or empty), as the inputs configuration block is not supported for push triggers [4][5]. 2. Handling Multiple Triggers: If a single workflow file defines both workflow_dispatch and other triggers (like push), the inputs context will only contain values when the workflow is manually triggered [3][5]. For non-manual triggers, attempting to access ${{ inputs.<input_name> }} will result in an empty or undefined value [4][5]. 3. Expression Context: Because the inputs context is undefined for push triggers, using expressions like ${{ inputs.my_input }} in those runs will not yield the expected results [5]. Workflow authors typically handle this by using conditional logic based on the event name (e.g., if: ${{ github.event_name == 'push' || inputs.my_input }}) or by separating concerns into different workflows where one acts as a reusable workflow (workflow_call) that is invoked by other workflows [4][5]. 4. Compatibility: While the inputs context is the preferred way to access inputs, values passed via workflow_dispatch are also available in the github.event.inputs context for backward compatibility [6][7][3]. Note that github.event.inputs converts all values to strings, whereas the inputs context preserves types like booleans [6][7].

Use a defined input source for branch, date, and sha.
This workflow runs only on push, so the inputs context is unavailable. These expressions can resolve to empty values before custom-job.yaml receives them. Use push-event values or declare a supported input trigger. actionlint reports the same issue in the existing jobs.

Leaving this one — inputs.branch/date/sha is the existing convention for custom-job.yaml callers in this push-triggered workflow (4 jobs on main already do it, and actionlint flags those identically). The new job just matches its neighbour pandas-tests; changing only this one would make it inconsistent, so it belongs in a repo-wide cleanup rather than here.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
@galipremsagar, the consistency rationale is valid. However, inputs.branch, inputs.date, and inputs.sha remain unavailable for this push-triggered workflow.
A repository-wide cleanup is appropriate. Please consider opening a follow-up issue to update all affected custom-job.yaml callers together. This PR still adds three new invalid references, so this finding remains applicable.

Added in 691447c — merge-results.py now exposes merge_results() behind a __main__ guard, with 7 tests in python/cudf/cudf_pandas_tests/test_pandas_tests_merge_results.py covering summing across shared modules, module union, first-value for non-numeric fields, and that booleans are not summed. Skipping the benchmark: this runs once per CI job over a handful of small JSON files, so merge time is not a metric worth tracking.

@galipremsagar, the merge-results.py coverage is sufficient. The seven tests cover the requested aggregation contract. The benchmark is not needed for this small, once-per-job utility.
The combined finding also requests tests for summary.sh. I could not find tests for its complete-shard, missing-shard, or absent-nightly paths. Please add that coverage, or split this finding so the completed merge-results.py portion can close separately.

rapids-check-pr-job-dependencies requires every job in pr.yaml to appear in pr-builder's needs, and the new matrix-generating job was not listed, so other-checks failed with "'pr-builder' job is missing the following dependent jobs: pandas-tests-shards".

Treat an empty nightly run list as absent. The jq expression returned the string "null" when no successful run was found, which passed the -z guard and sent the script off to download run "null", reporting a download failure instead of the real "no baseline yet". run.sh had the same expression, so both are fixed. Cover the merge contract with tests. merge-results.py produces the baseline every PR diffs against, so its aggregation is worth pinning down: the summing of counts for a module split across shards, the union of modules seen in only one shard, first-value handling for non-numeric fields, and that booleans are not summed despite bool being a subclass of int. The merge moves into a function behind a __main__ guard to make that testable; the CLI is unchanged.

Description
The pandas test suite is one of the longest poles in CI: over 200k tests on a
single runner, around 40 minutes per run, against a 90 minute timeout. This
shards it across runners in both the PR and the nightly workflows.
Sharding itself is done in
pandas-testing-plugin.py, which gains--shard-id/--num-shardsand assigns each test to a shard so that theshards are disjoint and together cover the suite. Both workflows currently use
2 shards.
PR runs (
pr.yaml)pandas-testsbecomes a matrix job. Each shard runs its subset and uploads itspartial per-module summary as
pandas-test-pr-results-<shard_id>.Because no single shard has the whole picture, the diff against nightly moves
into a new
pandas-tests-summaryjob, which merges the partial summaries(
merge-results.py) and posts the usual table. That job iscontinue-on-errorand best effort throughout — it must never block a PR, since the pass/fail
signal still comes from the shard jobs themselves.
Nightly runs (
pandas-tests.yaml)Sharded the same way, with a
pandas-tests-mergejob that recombines theshards into a single
main-results.jsonand re-uploads it under exactly thatname. Keeping the artifact name is what lets the existing consumers work
untouched: both
run.shandsummary.shfetch the baseline withgh run download --name main-results.json.Unlike the PR-side summary job, this one is deliberately strict and runs only
when every shard succeeded.
main-results.jsonis the baseline every PR diffsagainst, so a partial merge would surface as spurious "new failures" across
unrelated PRs — better for a nightly to produce no successful run at all than a
half-populated baseline.
Maintenance note
The shard count appears in three places per workflow and they have to agree:
the
shard_idmatrix, thenum-shardsargument torun.sh, and the argumentto
summary.sh(PR) ormerge-nightly.sh(nightly). Comments in both workflowfiles call this out at the point of change.
