+# Make sure the label EXISTS before trying to apply it (#1289).

+# AGENTS.md requires this label, and nothing ever created it. It was absent in
+# 12 of 16 estate repos, so `claim` could never return 0 there: the add below
+# failed and the script exited 2, "cannot tell", on every issue, for ever. The
+# coordination gate was structurally unable to pass in three quarters of the
+# estate, and nobody noticed because the two repos where claiming is exercised
+# most -- biffo-template and tabsii-platform -- were among the four that had it.
+#
+# Creating it here rather than in a setup step is deliberate: a label that only
+# exists where somebody remembered to run something is the same defect one step
+# removed. This runs on the claim path, so the mechanism repairs itself in any
+# repo where it is used, including one scaffolded tomorrow.
+#
+# Idempotent, and NOT fatal on failure: `gh label create` exits non-zero when the
+# label already exists, which is the overwhelmingly common case. A real failure
+# (no permission, no network) surfaces on the add immediately below, which IS
+# fatal -- so a broken claim still refuses rather than pretending.
