The shared release preflight worker exports GITHUB_ACTIONS=true so isolated single-repository checkouts take their private-sibling skip. That flag also made the load/SLO latency guards hard-fail on a contended shared host, where the tests' own documented local-contention skip is the intended behaviour. Distinguish a real GitHub Actions run by GITHUB_RUN_ID, which only a hosted runner sets, so the worker keeps the cross-repo skip while latency overruns skip instead of failing. Hosted CI enforcement is unchanged.
