fix(ci): pin third-party actions to full commit SHAs - #92
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.

Pin all reachable Node 20 actions to Node 24-compatible releases before 23 September 2026.
When GitHub-hosted runners remove Node 20, these JavaScript actions can fail to start. Replace each reference with a Node 24-compatible release, pin its commit SHA, and update the version comment. (github.blog)

official GitHub gh-actions-lock documentation --rescan actions.lock regenerate all workflows
💡 Result:
<search_synthesis>
The official GitHub tool for managing workflow dependency lockfiles is the gh CLI extension named gh-actions-lock [1]. To regenerate or update your lockfile using this tool, use the following commands: 1. To perform a standard update (which pins new actions or updates existing ones based on the current workflow definitions), run: gh actions-lock [1] 2. To specifically re-resolve references that have moved (such as updating branches or tags to their latest upstream commit SHAs), use the --relock flag: gh actions-lock --relock [1] If you encounter issues with "suspicious" pins where the recorded commit is no longer reachable, you can add the --accept-moved flag to force re-resolution [1]. Note: There is a separate, third-party tool called gh-actions-lockfile (often found at gjtorikian/gh-actions-lockfile) which is not certified by GitHub [2][3]. Users of that tool typically use the command gh-actions-lockfile generate to update their lockfiles [2][4]. Ensure you are using the correct tool for your repository's configuration [1][3].

Regenerate the actions lockfile with --relock.
.github/workflows/actions.lock records hyperpolymath/cicd-suite@main at fc64172aa53e85289d5d7d6e15c2435a867cc1c9, but this workflow pins commit 180b419825d238f8b606584c970a81dfa7cb6f81. Run gh actions-lock --relock without a workflow path so it rescans .github/workflows/ and updates both workflow entries. Do not edit the generated file manually.
