Building explain-ci: The AI Was the Smallest Part

Description and use

<p>CI goes red. Before I can think about the actual fix, I'm expanding the failing job and scrolling through three hundred lines of dependency resolution to find the one line that matters. Then the next person on the repo does the same thing, from scratch.</p> <p>So I built <a href="https://github.com/gopalcnepal/explain-ci" rel="noopener noreferrer">explain-ci</a>: a GitHub Action that reads the failed job's log and posts a plain-English explanation as a PR comment. By the time anyone opens the PR, it's already there.</p> <p><a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cf
