 Every RAPIDS repository using GitHub Actions has, at a minimum, the following three GitHub Action workflow files:
 
-- `pr.yaml` - [rmm workflow example](https://github.com/rapidsai/rmm/blob/branch-23.12/.github/workflows/pr.yaml), [rmm workflow run history](https://github.com/rapidsai/rmm/actions/workflows/pr.yaml)

 These GitHub Actions workflow files contain a description of all the automated jobs that run as a part of the workflow.
 
 These jobs contain things like C++/Python builds, C++/Python tests, notebook tests, etc.
 
 The chart below provides an overview of how each workflow file is used.

 Although release workflows don't run tests, they do go through a week of nightly testing to ensure everything works as expected. See [this page]({% link releases/process.md %}) for more details about the release process.
