Setting labels: [] in dependabot.yml does not suppress GitHub's auto-application of major/minor/patch labels — that behaviour fires whenever those labels exist in the repository, regardless of the labels: configuration. The previous workflow only added `patch` without removing the auto-applied `major`/`minor`, so dependency PRs ended up multi-labelled and would have driven the wrong version-bump in deploy.yml's release logic. - dependabot-auto-label.yml: also fires on `labeled` events and actively removes `major` and `minor` before adding `patch`, so the patch label ends up as the only version label. - deploy-develop-dependabot.yml (Quote only): remove the `labeled` trigger added in the previous fix. That workflow has no label check, so the extra trigger only caused parallel smoke-test runs that raced on the bun.lock fast-forward push. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
The previous attempt set
labels: []independabot.ymland added an auto-label workflow that appliedpatch. That did not fully fix the problem because GitHub auto-appliesmajor/minor/patchlabels to dependabot PRs whenever those labels exist in the repo — independent ofdependabot.yml'slabels:setting. PRs were ending up withminor,patchetc.This PR extends the auto-label workflow to actively remove
majorandminorbefore applyingpatch, and also fires onlabeledevents so it cleans up labels Dependabot adds shortly after PR creation.Changes
.github/workflows/dependabot-auto-label.yml— also triggers onlabeled; removesmajorandminorbefore addingpatch..github/workflows/deploy-develop-dependabot.yml— revert thelabeledtrigger added previously. That workflow has no label check, so the trigger only spawned parallel smoke-test runs racing on thebun.lockpush.Test plan
