What does this PR do?

Fixes high-confidence CodeQL Advanced code-scanning alerts on dev. Each change is minimal and behavior-preserving.

Reflected XSS — CWE-79 (alerts #14, #15, #16): the OAuth callback error pages interpolated the attacker-controllable error / error_description query params straight into the HTML response. A victim driven to the local loopback callback with a crafted error_description would get arbitrary JS executed in their browser. Fixed by HTML-escaping the value before interpolation in oauth-callback.ts, plugin/openai/codex.ts, and plugin/snowflake-cortex.ts.

Biased random from a CSPRNG — CWE-330 (alerts #33#38): the ID and PKCE generators reduced random bytes with % n over alphabets of length 62 and 66, neither of which divides 256, so the first few characters were over-represented. Replaced with rejection sampling (discard bytes in the biased tail) so every character is uniformly distributed — in id/id.ts (opencode + core), core/util/identifier.ts, and the xai / snowflake-cortex / openai/codex PKCE generators. I understand why this works: 256 = 4·62 + 8, so values ≥ 248 (resp. the tail for 66) map to a smaller residue range and skew the distribution; rejecting that tail removes the skew.

Workflow missing permissions (alerts #1, #2, #3): added least-privilege top-level permissions: contents: read to notify-discord.yml, storybook.yml, and typecheck.yml.

Remaining CodeQL alerts (Critical SSRF / uncontrolled command line, dev-script sanitization, regex complexity, test/generated-file findings) are intentionally left for separate follow-up as they need deeper design review.

How did you verify your code works?

  • Added an ad-hoc test generating 200 IDs: all are the correct length and within the base62 charset.
  • Changes are localized; no public APIs or output formats changed.

Address high-confidence findings from CodeQL Advanced scanning:
Reflected XSS (CWE-79) in OAuth callback error pages — HTML-escape the
attacker-controllable `error`/`error_description` query params before
interpolating into the response body:
- packages/opencode/src/mcp/oauth-callback.ts
- packages/opencode/src/plugin/openai/codex.ts
- packages/opencode/src/plugin/snowflake-cortex.ts
Biased random from a cryptographically secure source (CWE-330) — replace
modulo reduction over a non-power-of-divisor alphabet with rejection
sampling so each character is uniformly distributed:
- packages/opencode/src/id/id.ts (base62)
- packages/core/src/id/id.ts (base62)
- packages/core/src/util/identifier.ts (base62)
- packages/opencode/src/plugin/xai.ts (66-char PKCE alphabet)
- packages/opencode/src/plugin/snowflake-cortex.ts (PKCE)
- packages/opencode/src/plugin/openai/codex.ts (PKCE verifier)
Workflow missing permissions — add least-privilege `contents: read`:
- .github/workflows/notify-discord.yml
- .github/workflows/storybook.yml
- .github/workflows/typecheck.yml
