+name: Beauti Tests (beast-fx)
+
+# Runs the full BeastFX/Beauti TestFX suite, including the tests tagged
+# "slow" that ci-publish.yml skips on every push/PR (surefire.excludedGroups
+# defaults to "slow" — see root pom.xml). These are headless-JavaFX GUI
+# tests, slower and more flake-prone than the rest of the suite, so they
+# run nightly instead of gating every PR. Headless mode (TestFX + Monocle)
+# is already configured in beast-fx/pom.xml's surefire block, so no Xvfb
+# step is required.
+#
+# Triggers: nightly schedule, and workflow_dispatch for on-demand runs.
