Draft can watch for code changes via a `watch` setting in draft.toml. (Disclosure: I work on the containers team at Microsoft.)

Not directed at you specifically, but what is it with people these days feeling the need for a "disclosure" when just stating plain hard facts? Disclosures are only necessary when you state an opinion about something that you are involved with.
It's easier to be over-honest, honestly.

Disclosure: I suspect I am partly responsible for the "Disclosure:" thing become a fixture.

I think it parallels the online culture around shilling/astroturfing -- no one wants to be lumped in that category, so people are extra careful to air their laundry before someone tries to spin an armchair-investigative Google search against them after finding their employment history.
