Add --no-dev to the uv run ENTRYPOINT so that dev dependencies (black, mypy, pylint, etc.) are not re-downloaded on every action invocation. The build step already uses --no-dev during uv sync, but uv run was resolving the full dependency graph at runtime. Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

Problem
The Dockerfile
ENTRYPOINTusesuv runwithout--no-dev, causing it to re-sync the environment and download ~15MB of CI-only tools on every action invocation:The build step correctly uses
uv sync --frozen --no-dev, butuv runignores that and resolves the full dependency graph including[dependency-groups] dev.Fix
