Follow-up to #1779 (issue #1778): the first live run of the red watch failed in one second — gh api .../actions/workflows -q '.[] | ...' iterated the response OBJECT, and jq met {total_count: 80, ...}'s number first: expected an object but got: number (80). The fix is one word: .workflows[]. The rules in the t27 card are untouched; dispatch will be re-run as the proof after merge.

Owner approval (foreign edit): the owner's standing instruction of 2026-10-27, verbatim: "да все три и сделай сам автономно и в конце три варианта ускорения по правилу парето и писать все на .t27".

Summary by t27-bees

The fix changes the jq query to iterate .workflows[] instead of the top-level object .[], because the GitHub API wraps the workflow list in an object with a total_count field — the old query hit that number first and crashed.

Worth a look

• .github/workflows/main-red-watch.yml:39 — The query now correctly targets .workflows[]. If GitHub ever changes the response shape (e.g., removes the wrapper or renames the key), this will silently produce no output instead of failing loudly; the watch would then find zero workflows and report nothing.
