📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

A new minimal Conda environment configuration file is added to pin core dependencies, and the minimal CI job workflow is simplified to use this streamlined environment setup instead of copying and filtering the full environment configuration.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
CI Environment Configuration .ci_support/environment-mini.yml	New file defining minimal pinned dependencies (pandas, pyyaml, jinja2, hatchling, hatch-vcs) for CI builds.
GitHub Actions Workflow .github/workflows/pipeline.yml	Simplified minimal job environment setup: removed file copy and sed-based package filtering; now directly provisions from environment-mini.yml with only .condarc channel configuration.

Poem

🐰 A minimal hop, a config so neat,
Dependencies pinned, the setup's complete!

[Copilot]

environment-file points to environment-mini.yml, but the new env file lives under .ci_support/environment-mini.yml. As written, the setup-miniconda step likely won’t find the file and the minimal job will fail. Update the path (or copy the file into the workspace like the previous approach).

Suggested change

	environment-file: .ci_support/environment-mini.yml
	environment-file: .ci_support/environment-mini.yml

In @.github/workflows/pipeline.yml:
- Around line 100-108: The minimal workflow step "Setup Mambaforge" currently
sets environment-file: environment-mini.yml which points to the repo root;
update that environment-file value to the CI location where the PR added the
file (the .ci_support/environment-mini.yml) so the
conda-incubator/setup-miniconda@v3 step can find and load the environment
correctly.
