"Daily if activity" filtered scheduled triggering

[dsyme]

Wondering about custom triggering/activiation which supports

on:
  schedule: daily-if-activity

which means that the agentic part will only activate if there's actually been something happening in the repo since last trigger.

@pelikhan Is this implementable given what we have today or would we have to add something? Maybe custom activation hooks which can use

gh api repos/fsprojects/FSharp.Control.AsyncSeq/events
gh api repos/fsprojects/FSharp.Control.AsyncSeq/issues/events

to determine whether to cancel the activation if there's been no activity?

This could be customized to filter on particular events to considwer them "activity".

The aim would be zero-activity-very-low-cost scheduled repo attentiveness. If no activity, rather than waking up an agentic repo job costing $0.50, wake up a low cost runner costing $0.001

See skip-if-match, skip-if-no-match if it meets your needs

You could create a job that exposes an output and use that in if. It's code but these days the agents will vibecode it quick.
