🔧 Build-duty triage (domestic-cat, 2026-07-24): This automated inter-branch merge PR (release/10.0.3xx → release/10.0.4xx) is in a dirty / merge-conflict state, so PR validation cannot run and it will not self-resolve. It needs manual conflict resolution (push to the merge/release/10.0.3xx-to-release/10.0.4xx branch) before it can complete. Flagging for a repo owner to unblock the 10.0.x servicing flow.
