Re-points this repo's hyperpolymath/standards reusable-workflow pins at the standards default-branch HEAD, 8f2ee50841e216cd8c192eeb68953118190f105c.

This PR makes two changes, not one. It also widens the top-level permissions: block of 1 workflow file(s). A caller that grants a reusable less than the reusable's own permissions: request is rejected at workflow startup — the exact failure this PR exists to cure — so bumping the pin without this would move the repo from one silent disappearance to another. The scopes added are not hardcoded: each reusable's request is read from 8f2ee508 at sweep time and only the genuinely missing scopes are added, at the indent the file already uses. Only read-level scopes are added this way; anything needing write is held for review instead.

Why this is not a routine version bump. uses: org/repo/.github/workflows/x.yml@<ref> is resolved at workflow startup, so a bad ref is not a failing job — it is no job at all. This campaign repairs three kinds of drift and does not assume which one this repo had:

  • an unreachable sha kills the run before any job is created, so GitHub reports no check at all rather than a failing one: the gate does not go red, it disappears, and gh pr checks simply lists fewer rows. A repo in this state looks greener than one with working gates;
  • a floating ref such as @main runs, but unpinned — the supply-chain property the estate pins for is absent;
  • a stale but reachable sha runs the reusable as it was, silently reintroducing every bug fixed since it.

The refs this repo was actually pinned to, before this PR: 092dedada188f56c5915f74a5fd40aac093742c3.

Expect this PR to surface failures that main does not show. Those failures are revealed, not introduced — they are the gates resuming work after being silently absent. The honest comparison is the set of check names emitted here versus on main, not pass/fail counts. On the canary (hyperpolymath/empty-linter#79) the governance suite was absent on main and emitted 25 checks once repaired.

The target is default-branch HEAD resolved at sweep time, never a sha copied from a plan: a reachable but non-HEAD sha silently reintroduces every bug fixed since it.

This repo's standards reusable pins are re-pointed at the standards default-branch HEAD, resolved live at sweep time. The prior refs are recorded in the verification line below. Three kinds of drift are repaired together and the body does not claim which one this repo had: an UNREACHABLE sha kills the run at workflow STARTUP, so GitHub reports no check at all rather than a failing one and the gate disappears instead of going red; a FLOATING ref (@main) is unpinned supply chain; a merely STALE but reachable sha silently reintroduces every bug fixed since it. files=4 pins=4 perms=1 permlines=1 from=092dedada188f56c5915f74a5fd40aac093742c3 target=8f2ee508

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 53ff8

The updated workflows still permit mutable nested dependency resolution and pass all caller secrets to an external workflow. These supply-chain and secret-exposure risks should be resolved or explicitly accepted before merge.

use the exact immutable Standards commit SHA rather than a mutable branch
reference, ensuring nested standards checkouts execute deterministically; do not
use job.workflow_sha, which identifies the caller repository.

In @.github/workflows/hypatia-scan.yml:
- Line 20: Update the reusable Hypatia scan workflow reference so the nested
Hypatia checkout explicitly fetches and checks out the resolved commit used for
the cache key before building the scanner, rather than cloning the current
default branch.
- Line 14: Add a concise comment next to the reusable workflow’s actions: read
permission explaining that callers must grant it because the called workflow
cannot elevate GITHUB_TOKEN permissions.

In @.github/workflows/secret-scanner.yml:
- Line 21: Remove the unnecessary secrets: inherit setting from the workflow
invocation using secret-scanner-reusable.yml, leaving the pinned reusable
workflow reference unchanged.

Document why actions: read is required.

The reusable workflow declares actions: read under workflow_call. The caller must grant this permission because the called workflow cannot elevate the caller's GITHUB_TOKEN permissions.

Proposed change
-  actions: read
+  actions: read # required by hypatia-scan-reusable.yml
📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

@hyperpolymath, I will add the requested explanation next to actions: read.

  • Update .github/workflows/hypatia-scan.yml.
  • Keep the permission value as read.
  • Explain that hypatia-scan-reusable.yml requires this caller permission.

💡 Result:

The file hypatia-scan-reusable.yml is a GitHub Actions reusable workflow component within the hyperpolymath/standards repository [1][2][3]. This repository serves as the central standards and tooling library for the hyperpolymath estate, providing shared workflows, policies, and automation [3]. The string 8f2ee50841e216cd8c192eeb68953118190f105c represents a specific commit SHA (or a reference to one) used within the estate's CI/CD infrastructure [1][4]. Such SHA pins are standard practice in this ecosystem to ensure immutability and reproducibility of the security-scanning and governance workflows, such as Hypatia [1][4]. Hypatia is a neurosymbolic CI/CD scanner used across the hyperpolymath estate to audit workflows and enforce security rules [1][2]. The hypatia-scan-reusable.yml workflow is invoked by various repositories to perform these scans, and its configuration—including SHA-pinned versions of actions and scanner rules—is strictly managed to prevent drift and ensure consistent enforcement of security policies, such as banning insecure languages or ensuring proper timeout configurations [1][2][3]. Maintenance of these workflows often involves addressing false positives in the scanner's detectors (e.g., workflow_audit or cicd_rules) by refining rules in the central standards repository, which then necessitates updates to the reusable workflows across the estate [1][2].

Pin the nested Hypatia checkout before accepting this revision.

@hyperpolymath, the fix belongs in hyperpolymath/standards, not in this caller workflow.

  • Update the nested Hypatia checkout in the shared reusable workflow.
  • Fetch the SHA from steps.hypatia-rev.outputs.sha.
  • Check out that SHA in detached mode.
  • Publish the standards change and update this PR to its new immutable pin.

@hyperpolymath, I will verify the pinned reusable workflow before removing secrets: inherit. The review thread remains open until that verification confirms the change is safe.
