+# **what?**
+# The purpose of this workflow is to trigger CI to run for each
+# on a regular cadence. This will also test core + common to prevent breaks.
+# If the CI workflow fails, it will post to #dev-core-alerts to raise awareness.
+
+# **why?**
+# Ensures dbt-common is always shippable and not broken.
+# Also, can catch any dependencies shifting beneath us that might
+# introduce breaking changes (could also impact Cloud).
+
+# **when?**
+# Mainly on a schedule of 9:00, 13:00, 18:00 UTC everyday.
+# Manual trigger can also test on demand
