Summary

Resolves the growing backlog of open Dependabot pull requests by fixing label-related issues and CI workflow misconfigurations.

  • Created missing repository labels (dependencies, rust, ci) that Dependabot references in dependabot.yml but didn't exist in the repo, causing label assignment failures on every Dependabot PR
  • Removed --all-features flag from CI check, clippy, and test jobs — this flag enabled the optional python (PyO3) feature which requires Python development headers not available in the CI runner, causing build failures on Dependabot PRs (and all PRs)
  • Added pip ecosystem to dependabot.yml for tracking pyproject.toml dependency updates

Root Cause Analysis

  1. Label mismatch: dependabot.yml referenced labels dependencies, rust, and ci, but only default GitHub labels existed in the repo. Dependabot silently failed to apply labels, making PRs harder to filter and manage.
  2. CI build failures: --all-features in CI compiled with pyo3 (optional Python FFI feature), which requires Python dev headers (Python.h). Standard CI runners don't have these, so cargo check/clippy/test --all-features failed on every PR.
  3. Missing pip ecosystem: pyproject.toml exists on main but Dependabot wasn't configured to track its dependencies.

Test plan

Closes #61
