Please tell us more about your question or problem

How do I configure renovate not to run bazel mod deps?

Since #41507 and #41976, renovate runs bazel mod deps --lockfile_mode=update after updating bazel dependencies.

For our environment that command always fails because we have custom bazel plugins depending on tools not installed on mend servers. (Specifically, go, and mise.)

renovate bot will open the PR and then comment

Artifact update problem

Renovate failed to update an artifact related to this branch. You probably do not want to merge this PR as-is.

♻ Renovate will retry this branch, including artifacts, only when one of the following happens:

any of the package files in this branch needs updating, or
the branch becomes conflicted, or
you click the rebase/retry checkbox if found above, or
you rename this PR's title to start with "rebase!" to trigger it manually

The artifact failure details are included below:
File name: MODULE.bazel.lock

   Command failed: bazel mod deps --lockfile_mode=update
   Error in fail: Failed to list mise tools:
   src/main/tools/process-wrapper-legacy.cc:80: "execvp(mise, ...)": No such file or directory
   ERROR: Results may be incomplete as 2 extensions failed.

(I've redacted part of the logs that contain company specific file names.)

We have a custom GitHub action configured to run this command already for our repository, on an AMI that has our required tools.

We also use https://www.aviator.co/ to merge PRs.
Aviator is somehow getting blocked because of the error from renovate:

Failed checks: renovate/artifacts

Also note that - in about an hour - the updating of Bazel modules will be disabled by default in Renovate (CLI and Mend-hosted)

If you can also share a Job ID from the Mend-hosted UI, I can investigate a couple of things in a bit more detail, too

Job ID from the Mend-hosted UI

When looking at a GitHub pull request, how do I find the Mend-hosted Job ID?
Alternatively, how do I search Mend for pull request number?

Where is the best place to file bugs/feature requests for the Mend-hosted UI? The interface https://developer.mend.io/github/org/repo can be improved:

• Clicking through pages of recent jobs does not change the URL so there is no way to link to any page other than the first.
• Currently no way to change to show more jobs per page than the default.
• It is showing me this error "⚠️ Error updating branch: update failure" but no link to tell what branch or where to look to find more information.
