IMO this info should be in CONTRIBUTING.md alongside the description of [skip ci].  I never knew about this.  I never knew about [skip ci].  Don’t assume users are familiar with script intervals, or github fundamentals, or whatever other mechanism implements the [skip *] facility.  Best to document it in the right place.

Also CONTRIBUTING.md should start with a table of contents.  It is nearly tl;dr
