YES
## What kind of change does this PR introduce?
CI / tooling — GitHub Actions workflow update.
## What is the current behavior?
PRs that modify `packages/api-types/types/**` can be merged before the
corresponding API has shipped to production, breaking the Studio
frontend when it calls endpoints that do not exist yet. The
`api-deploy-required` label is enforced only by convention and code
review, which is easy to miss.
## What is the new behavior?
- `.github/labeler.yml`: auto-applies `api-deploy-required` to any PR
that touches `packages/api-types/types/**`.
- `.github/workflows/label_prs.yml`: drops the `apps/docs/**/*` path
filter so the labeler runs on all PRs, and posts a one-time comment when
`api-deploy-required` is newly added (uses the labeler's `new-labels`
output so re-pushes do not re-comment).
- `.github/workflows/validate-pr.yml`: adds a step that fails the
`Validate pull request` check while the `api-deploy-required` label is
present, mirroring the existing `do-not-merge` pattern. The author
removes the label after confirming the API is live to unblock merge.
Reviewer: please confirm `Validate pull request` is configured as a
required check on `master` in branch protection — that step is what
enforces the block.
