CAMARA Project Admin Update - Linting Migration

This pull request migrates this repository from local linting configuration to centralized linting workflows managed by the CAMARA project.

🔄 Migration Summary

Removed local linting artifacts:

• megalinter.yml
• spectral_oas_lint.yml
• .spectral.yml
• .yamllint.yaml
• .gherkin-lintrc
• Lint function scripts in /lint_function/

Added centralized workflows:

• spectral-oas-caller.yml - Spectral linting with CAMARA ruleset
• pr_validation_caller.yml - Comprehensive PR validation

✨ Benefits of Centralized Linting

1. Always Up-to-Date: Linting rules and workflows are automatically updated across all repositories
2. Consistent Standards: Ensures uniform code quality checks across all CAMARA APIs
3. Reduced Maintenance: No need to maintain linting configurations locally
4. Enhanced Features: Access to latest tooling improvements without manual updates
5. Simplified Configuration: Workflows reference the centralized tooling repository

📋 What This Means for You

• No action required for basic operation - workflows will run automatically
• All existing checks continue with improved reliability
• Custom configurations can be discussed with the Release Management team if needed

🔧 Technical Details

The new workflows reference reusable workflows from:
camaraproject/tooling/.github/workflows/

This ensures all repositories benefit from:

• Latest Spectral rules for OpenAPI validation
• Consistent PR validation checks
• Centralized rule management
• Automated tooling updates

👥 Next Steps for Codeowners

⚠️ Important: This PR introduces linting workflows that will validate repository content. Linting errors will block this PR from merging until resolved.

Before This PR Can Be Merged:

1. Review linting results in PR checks:

   • Check the "Checks" tab for workflow results
   • All linting errors must be resolved before merge is possible

2. Fix linting errors directly in this PR:

   • Address all OpenAPI specification issues (Spectral and yamllint errors)
   • Address all test definitions issues (gherkin-lint errors)
   • Push fixes to this PR branch to re-trigger validation
   • Repeat until all checks pass successfully

Approve and merge this PR 🚀

After Successful Merge:

1. Monitor the new linting system:

   • All future PRs will be subject to the same linting requirements
   • Contributors will need to fix linting issues before their PRs can merge
   • This ensures code quality standards are maintained going forward

2. Test with additional rules (optional):

   • Verify OpenAPI specification with lower severity rules (warnings, hints, info)
   • Go to Actions tab → "Caller for Spectral linting with CAMARA ruleset" → Run workflow
   • Check workflow logs - if needed create an issue to improve your API specification

3. Monitor future PRs:

   • First PRs after this may reveal new edge cases
   • Provide guidance to contributors on common linting fixes
   • The Release Management team can assist with complex issues

💡Pro tip: Running the Spectral workflow manually NOW is highly recommended. This allows you to fix issues proactively rather than discovering them when submitting your next feature PR!

LGTM. There are no linting errors and all checks have been successful. However, this PR will conflict with #33 (the public release PR), which modifies some of the deleted local linting artifacts according to the latest Fall25 changes in Commonalities. We will resolve that if needed.

The centralized configuration in the reusable workflow is using the latest definitions from Commonalities, see https://github.com/camaraproject/tooling/tree/v0/linting/config. So you can just omit the configuration files from the release PR.
