[workflow-style] Normalize report formatting for non-compliant workflows

[github-actions]

Daily review of report-generating workflows (those with create-issue, create-discussion, or add-comment safe-outputs) found 34 non-compliant workflows out of 173 report-generating workflows scanned (285 total workflow files). Non-compliance means the prompt lacks explicit guidance for h3+ headers and <details>/progressive-disclosure formatting, and doesn't reference the shared reporting skill.

Style Guidelines (recap)

1. Headers: start at ### (h3) or lower, never #/##.
2. Progressive Disclosure: wrap long content in <details><summary><b>Text</b></summary>...</details>.
3. Checkboxes: use - [ ] / - [x].
4. Run links: format as [§12345](https://github.com/owner/repo/actions/runs/12345).

Good references: daily-repo-chronicle, audit-workflows (and any workflow that explicitly invokes the reporting skill/instructions).

Example: Progressive Disclosure

Required Changes Per Workflow

For each file listed above:

• Add explicit instruction that generated report content must use ### (h3) or lower for headers — never #/##.
• Add a <details><summary><b>...</b></summary> block requirement for any long list/log output, to keep the primary report scannable.
• Add or clarify an "Output Format" / "Report Structure" section describing the expected shape of the final report (mirroring daily-repo-chronicle or audit-workflows).
• Recompile with make recompile after editing .md files under .github/workflows/.

Note: many smoke-* workflows are internal test fixtures rather than user-facing reports — for these, apply the lightest-touch fix (a one-line note pointing at the shared reporting skill) rather than a full rewrite, unless their safe-output content is genuinely user-facing.

Design Principles Reminder

Per Airbnb-inspired design principles: keep primary content trustworthy and scannable, hide supporting detail behind progressive disclosure, and use a consistent report shape across all workflows so users build confidence quickly regardless of which workflow produced the report.

🍪 Issue Monster selected this for Copilot

I identified this as a strong candidate for automated resolution and requested assignment to the Copilot coding agent.

This topic appears independent from the other issues selected in this run, so it should be safe to work in parallel.
