## Summary
- close inactive PRs after 7 days only when they have failing checks or
merge conflicts
- include merge state in the PR closer query and close with the specific
reason
- keep existing exclusions for @jdx-authored and keep-open PRs

## Validation
- actionlint .github/workflows/pr-closer.yml
- git diff --check
- jq filter sample validation

<!-- CURSOR_SUMMARY -->
---

> [!NOTE]
> **Medium Risk**
> Automates PR closure based on CI/merge-state signals; a bug in the
query or jq logic could incorrectly close active or recoverable PRs.
Limited to GitHub Actions workflow changes but impacts contributor
workflow.
> 
> **Overview**
> Updates the `pr-closer` GitHub Actions workflow to **close PRs much
sooner (7 days inactivity)**, but only when they have *failing checks
and/or merge conflicts*.
> 
> The workflow now queries `mergeStateStatus` and expanded check
conclusions to generate a specific closure reason, skips “warn-only”
states (e.g., cancelled checks/unknown merge state), increases the
listing limit to 500, and adds `concurrency` plus additional read
permissions (`checks`, `statuses`) to support the new filtering.
