What is Different

Before

Scattered source updates, isolated context, and manual follow-up across multiple feeds.

Now

Added an explicit validation PR path (empty/placeholder change) to exercise and confirm the repository-level CLA verification flow, ensuring the OpenCLA check is created and updated in the PR lifecycle.

Why Track This

Why It Matters

Repository contributors and maintainers get an earlier, automated signal about CLA compliance status, which reduces merge friction and manual follow-up when a contributor needs to complete CLA signing. This change confirms the OpenCLA GitHub App check path in grok-cli, but the key thing to keep watching is whether the check consistently triggers on normal contribution PRs and whether its status updates reliably on PR transitions.
