Hi!

Three workflow examples fail when copied: one isn't valid YAML, one pins a checkout commit that doesn't exist, and one runs a nox session the nox page never defines.

  • tutorials/trusted-publishing.md: in Step 3, uses:, with: and run: sat two spaces deeper than name:, so the YAML doesn't parse. I lined them up, and moved checkout and setup-python to v7 to match the example workflow further down the page.
  • tests/run-tests.md: the checkout SHA is 39 characters, and GitHub has no such commit. It now pins v7.0.1, the same SHA as examples/pure-hatch.
  • tests/tests-ci.md: nox -s tests-<version> is now test-<version>, the session run-tests-nox.md defines. I also bumped checkout, setup-python and codecov-action to v7; codecov's README says v7 needs token: ${{ secrets.CODECOV_TOKEN }}.

Tests: nox -s docs-test passes, and so do the translated builds. Every YAML block on the trusted-publishing page parses. I left Python 3.9 in both matrices (end of life since October 2025), since dropping it is your call.

Best,

Simon

Sorry, something went wrong.

- trusted-publishing: align step keys so the Step 3 YAML parses, and
  move its checkout and setup-python to v7, as the example workflow uses
- run-tests: pin actions/checkout to a commit that exists (v7.0.1)
- tests-ci: run the nox session the nox page defines (test, not tests),
  and update checkout, setup-python and codecov-action
