ci(rhodibot): switch to the report-only canary (standards#759) - #77
Conversation
The RSR workflow here is the mutating variant: weekly cron, write permissions,
glob deletes, a bulk SPDX `sed` sweep the licence policy forbids, a
`${{ steps.fix.outputs.FIXES }}` injection sink, and a hardcoded personal
e-mail. Replaced with the canary the template ships: same schedule, same drift
signal, reports instead of mutating.
Refs hyperpolymath/standards#759 (option (a), canary propagation).

Full details: Description checkExplanation The description explains the purpose, scope, security rationale, and related migration. However, it does not follow the repository template because it omits the Changes section, the RSR Quality Checklist, and the Testing section. It also does not state whether screenshots are not applicable. Resolution Add the required template sections. List the key changes under Changes, complete the RSR Quality Checklist, describe the tests or validation performed under Testing, and state that Screenshots are not applicable if no screenshots or terminal output are available.

Add the action lock and pin actions/checkout to an immutable commit SHA.
actions/checkout@v7.0.1 violates the repository action-lock policy. The lock file is absent, so the scheduled and manual canary is rejected before checkout runs. Regenerate .github/workflows/actions.lock with the full SHA. contents: read does not replace action pinning.

The RSR workflow in this repository is the mutating variant of rhodibot: it runs on a
weekly cron with
contents: write+pull-requests: write, deletes files by glob, andbulk-rewrites SPDX headers — which the standing licence policy forbids. It also interpolates
${{ steps.fix.outputs.FIXES }}into arun:block (repo-derived filenames, soattacker-influenceable) and hardcodes a personal e-mail address.
This replaces it with the report-only canary that the estate template already ships — the
already-approved design, not a new one. Same weekly schedule, same drift signal, no mutation:
it reports what an auto-fixer would have changed and fails the run when it finds drift,
rather than editing anything. Licence/SPDX drift is reported for manual, owner-only
correction; rhodibot must never edit a licence header.
Part of the
standards#759migration (canary propagation, option (a)). The workflow'suses:pins are unchanged, so
actions.lockis unaffected.
