Research direction

Start by locating the CI configuration for static typing checks and inspect how repositories under vendor_test are cloned or made available. Determine the intended policy for checks with and without those repositories; done requires an agreed enforcement approach and CI behavior that consistently applies it.

Description

CI static typing

Currently we do not enforce whether or not the cloned repos under vendor_test are present for the static typing checks. It may be beneficial to run these checks with the repos cloned, but we'd have to think how best to enforce it, and whether the cost of enforcement is worth the benefits.
