fix(ci): codeql-action v4.38.1 -> v4.38.0 SHA pin + dependabot hold (estate-wide startup_failure) - #88
Conversation
v4.38.1 (tag AND commit SHA 1c5b675) fails GitHub workflow-startup validation estate-wide: codeql/hypatia runs die with startup_failure, zero jobs, no API error text. Full investigation: nexia-list#100. Rollback to the v4.38.0 commit b96794f015dfd88f77b49b1c93e0fa7110f94c63 (green on deed-ecosystem; satisfies repo SHA-pin policy). actions.lock re-keyed; dependabot held unconditionally (versions-scoped ignores were bypassed in SHA form - nexia-list#101). Canonical fix: hyperpolymath/standards#973.

The CodeQL initialisation, analysis, and SARIF upload steps use commit b96794f015dfd88f77b49b1c93e0fa7110f94c63 for v4.38.0. Dependabot ignores github/codeql-action updates and documents the v4.38.1 hold. |

Change: Bug fix
Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 908db
CodeQL workflows are rolled back to the known-good pinned version, preventing the reported startup failures while updates remain on hold. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains.

Summary
Estate-wide incident:
github/codeql-actionv4.38.1 fails GitHub workflow startup on every repo that took it — CodeQL/Hypatia runs die withstartup_failure, zero jobs dispatched, no error text via the API. Full investigation + evidence chain: nexia-list#100.Changes
