fix(ci): pin third-party actions to full commit SHAs - #90
Conversation
The account's Actions policy requires a full-length SHA ref. A tag or branch ref is refused at startup — `startup_failure`, no jobs, "this workflow graph cannot be shown" — so these workflows could not run at all. This resolves each ref to the commit it currently points at and records the ref in a trailing comment, e.g. `actions/checkout@<sha> # v4`. `dtolnay/rust-toolchain` takes its toolchain from the ref itself, so those steps also gained an explicit `with: toolchain:` input; without it, a SHA ref would silently lose the channel. No behaviour is intended to change beyond the pins.

WalkthroughThe pull request replaces mutable GitHub Actions tags and branches with immutable commit SHAs across repository workflows. Version comments remain beside the pinned references. Workflow logic, inputs, permissions, and conditions remain unchanged. ChangesCI and security workflow pinning
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Change: Other Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to CI now executes action revisions that differ from the checked-in provenance lock, so policy and maintenance tooling can evaluate stale dependencies. Regenerate the lock before merging. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Regenerate .github/workflows/actions.lock from the final workflow pins.
The lock includes all three workflow paths, but its action versions and commits do not match the references that CI executes:
ci-cd.ymlusesdocker/setup-buildx-action@v4.4.0; the lock recordsv4.3.0.codeql.ymlusesgithub/codeql-action@v4.38.0; the lock recordsv4.37.9.push-email-notify.ymluses a commit that differs from the commit recorded forhyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action@v0.2.0.
Run gh actions-lock to synchronise the generated lock with CI. Estate policy and maintenance tooling can otherwise use provenance that differs from the actions executed by CI.
