Note: because this only triggers when the PR is created (etc) or commented on (*) there will need to be some out-of-band action (whether fully manual, or scripted) to ensure the "awaiting cla" flag is set correctly on legacy PRs. (*) and in the steady-state I think this is the correct (most efficient) way to do it. |

Existing Issue
This is the first half of the solution to #2626
AI disclosure
Initial coding by Claude Opus 4.8
Subsequently checked and neatened by hand. I understand, and accept responsibility for, all the resulting code.
Test Coverage
Automated testing not really possible. Will need some careful supervision in early operation.
