This PR adds a scheduled cronjob to the GitHub Actions CI workflow to automatically run the full CI pipeline every Friday at midnight UTC.

Changes Made

  • Added a schedule trigger to .github/workflows/CI.yaml with cron expression 0 0 * * 5
  • Added descriptive comment explaining the schedule timing

Why This Change

Running CI on a weekly schedule helps:

  • Catch dependency drift and environmental changes that might break the build
  • Ensure the project remains buildable even during periods of low development activity
  • Provide early warning of upstream dependency issues
  • Maintain code quality through regular automated testing

Technical Details

The cron expression 0 0 * * 5 follows GitHub Actions standard format:

  • 0 - minute 0 (top of the hour)
  • 0 - hour 0 (midnight UTC)
  • * - any day of month
  • * - any month
  • 5 - Friday (0=Sunday through 6=Saturday)

The scheduled runs will execute the same comprehensive CI checks as pull requests and pushes to main:

  • Pre-commit hooks validation
  • Nix package building
  • Nix flake checks across all systems
  • Full integration test suite

Backward Compatibility

This change is completely backward compatible. Existing triggers (pull requests and pushes to main branch) remain unchanged and continue to work exactly as before.
