Moves all five hyperpolymath/standards reusable-workflow pins (governance, hypatia-scan, mirror, scorecard, secret-scanner) from 7fdc2705, which is not on standards main, to fad242d35291de1898242d6737ba02b74a59a2f2, the current standards main HEAD. Pins actions/checkout@v7 in secret-scanner.yml to the v7.0.1 sha already used by the other workflows, because sha_pinning_required rejects bare major tags at startup.

Root cause of the startup failures (second commit). The pin bump alone still failed at startup for Governance and Hypatia, exactly as #86 did. At standards HEAD the governance, hypatia-scan and mirror reusables request actions: read at workflow level (hypatia since 2026-06-02, governance and mirror since 2026-07-26). A called workflow cannot request more than its caller grants, and this repo's callers granted only contents: read, so GitHub rejected each call before any job ran and reported no check. The secret-scanner reusable requests only contents: read, which is why it started and its three inner jobs went green under the same pin. The second commit grants actions: read on the three callers and adds secrets: inherit on governance, matching standards' own caller.

Supersedes #85 (moves to the non-HEAD sha 092dedad, which still carries the trufflehog repeated-fail-flag bug) and #86 (governance only).

Remaining red after this: the repo's own trufflehog job in secret-scanner.yml (flag 'fail' cannot be repeated) is a separate defect in the caller-side step, not the reusable, and is left for its own PR.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Move governance, hypatia-scan, mirror, scorecard and secret-scanner from
7fdc2705 (not an ancestor of standards main; kills every run at startup)
to fad242d3, the current standards main HEAD witnessed green. Pin the
secret scanner's actions/checkout@v7 to the v7.0.1 sha the other
workflows already use, since sha_pinning_required rejects bare major
tags at startup.

Supersedes #85 (non-HEAD pin 092dedad, which reintroduces the trufflehog
repeated-flag bug) and #86 (governance only).

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Security and Compliance
    • Updated governance, security scanning, mirroring and Scorecard workflows to use refreshed, pinned workflow versions.
    • Improved workflow permissions to support required read-only action access.
    • Updated secret-scanning components and checkout configuration.
    • Secret scanning now checks for verified secrets without failing on unverified findings.

Walkthrough

The pull request updates GitHub Actions permissions and reusable workflow pins. It pins actions/checkout in the secret scanner and removes TruffleHog's --fail flag.

Changes

Workflow security and governance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow permissions and reusable pins
.github/workflows/governance.yml, .github/workflows/hypatia-scan.yml, .github/workflows/mirror.yml, .github/workflows/scorecard.yml
The workflows add or update permissions and reference the reusable workflows at commit fad242d35291de1898242d6737ba02b74a59a2f2.
Secret scanner execution updates
.github/workflows/secret-scanner.yml
The workflow pins actions/checkout to a commit SHA, updates its reusable workflow reference, and removes TruffleHog's --fail flag.

Priority: ➖ Normal — Schedule the workflow update because it addresses startup failures across five CI and security workflows caused by mismatched pins and insufficient permissions.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 92631

The workflow startup fixes are not ready to merge because governance receives unnecessarily broad secret access and Hypatia may lose Dependabot-alert coverage when its PAT is configured.

At standards main HEAD the governance, hypatia-scan and mirror reusables
request `actions: read` at workflow level. A called workflow cannot
request more than its caller grants, and these callers granted only
`contents: read`, so GitHub rejected each call at startup with no check
reported. The secret-scanner reusable requests only `contents: read`,
which is why it started and went green under the same pin.

Match standards' own caller: `actions: read` + `contents: read`, and
`secrets: inherit` on governance so the optional HYPATIA_SCAN_PAT can
reach it where configured.

The trufflehog action already passes --fail; repeating it in extra_args
makes the binary abort with "flag 'fail' cannot be repeated" before any
scan runs. This was the last red on the branch and is unrelated to the
reusable pins.

…match

The startup failures were caused by callers granting only contents:read
while the reusables at standards HEAD request actions:read, not by an
unreachable sha. Recorded as witnessed on PR #88.

…findings

Owner ruling 2026-09-08: the name is Feedback-o-Tron, spelled o-tron on
every surface; fot is a typing alias only; a-tron is retired from
user-facing surfaces. No naming question remains open.

Review findings on #87, all verified against the document and, for the
MCP claim, against the specification's own deprecation table:

- section numbers replaced by anchors and xrefs (one more, "section 9",
  was also wrong and is fixed)
- "door" defined: protocol door vs host door; the stocktake now says
  "no host door other than boj"
- Deno removal scoped to the product/runtime path; remnants named and
  assigned to SP1b and SP7
- P2 flipped to configured-provider-first because MCP Sampling is
  deprecated from spec revision 2026-07-28 (SEP-2577); sampling is now
  opportunistic on revisions 2025-06-18..2026-07-28 and marked as a
  proposal awaiting ruling
- media redaction path (OCR, scrubbers, blur, diff); L3 sends no media
  until it lands; SP3 test plants an IP in a screenshot
- local-record lifecycle: redacted copy plus hash only, 0600, encrypted
  at rest, 90-day default, fot ledger purge
- model providers are ledger-controlled destinations; model_locality is
  evaluated before provider selection; the "no permitted provider" state
  is defined so the L2-L3 advisor ruling and local-only profiles do not
  contradict
- S0 keeps its fast path but gains a per-(sender, destination) circuit
  breaker with human escalation, marked as a proposal awaiting ruling
- SP2 names its four hosts; cursor and zed move to SP5
- SP1 split into SP1a (CI, #88) and SP1b (fot serve, README stranger
  test); provider abstraction and the L2 tests assigned to SP2; SP8
  added for the Zig C ABI
- ruling 4 corrected: elixir-mcp/ARCHITECTURE.adoc is what main carries

invocation with an explicit mapping that passes only the optional
HYPATIA_SCAN_PAT secret, preserving its availability to the reusable workflow.

In @.github/workflows/hypatia-scan.yml:
- Line 20: Update the reusable workflow invocation to inherit caller secrets by
adding secrets: inherit, ensuring HYPATIA_SCAN_PAT is available to the Hypatia
scan. Do not use a named secret mapping because the reusable workflow does not
declare that secret.
