• Possible parent: Workflow Health Manager - Meta-Orchestrator - Issue Group #12859 (Workflow Health Manager - Meta-Orchestrator - Issue Group) for Workflow Health Dashboard - 2026-01-31 #12858 (Workflow Health Dashboard - 2026-01-31) — likely related, but the dashboard issue reads like a report rather than a work item.
• Possible parent for dependabot-bundle cluster ([dependabot-bundle] npm: /.github/workflows/package.json #12833–[dependabot-bundle] npm: /actions/setup/js/package.json #12837) if maintainers want a single tracking issue for the security-alert burndown campaign.

Observations

• Several workflows already emit explicit Issue Group parents; linking their child issues substantially improves navigation.
• Some issue families (Code Quality, dependabot-bundle) are large and may benefit from a single tracking parent once confirmed by maintainers.
