fix(ci): repair dogfood-gate.yml — the workflow has never run

[hyperpolymath]

This workflow is invalid YAML, so GitHub refuses it at parse time. It produces no run, no check-run, no annotation and no log — not a red X, an absence. Nothing on a dashboard distinguishes "this gate passed" from "this gate does not exist".

The tell: the Actions API reports the workflow's name as its file path instead of its name: — GitHub registers a file it cannot parse under its path.

name = ".github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml"
path = ".github/workflows/dogfood-gate.yml"   <- name == path

Cause

The embedded python3 -c " body starts at column 0:

        run: |
          python3 -c "
import tomllib, sys          # <- column 0 ends the block scalar

A run: | literal block ends at the first non-empty line indented less than the block. The Python terminates it, and YAML then tries to parse import tomllib, sys as a mapping key — "could not find expected :".

Fix

Indent the embedded body and its closing quote to the block indent. YAML strips that indent again when parsing, so the shell and the interpreter still receive the code at column 0. The content is unchanged; only the YAML framing differs.

Verified, not assumed

• the file parses and yields a jobs: mapping
• bash -n passes on the reconstructed run block
• the resulting run: value is byte-identical to the same workflow in repos where it already parses (e.g. bofig) — this reproduces the known-good form rather than inventing one
• exactly one file changed

Scope

Measured estate-wide: 211 invalid workflow files across 116 repos, confirmed by the Actions API. dogfood-gate.yml accounts for 71 of them.
