sec(code-quality): whole-tree action-pin gate, advisory until the #1491 sweep lands (backend#1492, D10) - #159
Conversation
…91 sweep lands (backend#1492, D10) Hand-pinning does not hold (#1446/#1449: a second unpinned call site of the SAME action merged cleanly while the pin PR was open). New default-on action-pins job: strict line grammar, comment-safe, whole-tree always; tracebloc/*@main allowed by Q3, 40-hex pins by D10, digest-pinned docker://, local ./ actions; expression refs are refused, not skipped (property 2). action-pins-soft-fail defaults true (format-soft-fail's migration shape) so armed repos do not redden before #1491 merges.

…ion marker from parts (Bugbot + actionlint, #159) A tracebloc ref frozen on a SHA is drift, not a pin - the owner check must come first. And actionlint validates expressions inside run: blocks, so the Python source must never contain a literal expression opener even in a string. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…mmary carries the full finding list (Bugbot round 2, #159) Any caller repo has at least one workflow (its own caller), so an empty glob means the checkout/cwd is wrong - fails even under soft-fail, which governs findings, never scan integrity. And the ten-annotation cap made a backlog repo show ten warnings and a bare count - the summary now lists every finding like the sibling jobs. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

FR on staging → Ready for prod (staging FR sweep, 2026-08-06). Basis: CI/tooling-only change with no product runtime surface — verified green through code review + Bugbot on develop and the fr-gated staging promotion. No product-behavior verification required for this class. |
First push of this branch produced a startup_failure on the reusable call (run 31086491251): every other check reported normally and `Code quality` never started. Cause: `action-pins` and `action-pins-soft-fail` were added in #159, which is on `develop`; `main` still carries the five-job version of code-quality.yml. Callers must reference @main (Q3), and passing an input the @main callee does not declare fails the entire call before any job runs. Same merge-order trap as the #160 audit red: a change becomes consumable by @main callers when it is PROMOTED, not when it is merged. The other five jobs still run armed, so most of backend#1603 closes now. The arming diff is written verbatim in the file so the follow-up is mechanical once #159 reaches main. Refs backend#1603.
…1603) (#171) * feat(ci): run the org's own code-quality suite on this repo (backend#1603) This repo publishes code-quality.yml -- and its action-pins job -- to all 19 other repos, and was the only repo that never ran it. The exemption was invisible because actionlint.yml looks like coverage: it type-checks every expression, validates needs/uses wiring, and shellchecks every run: block. What it does not do is look at action REFS. So the pinning rule this repo defines was the one rule this repo was not subject to. That is not theoretical. On 2026-08-06 .github#168 -- an otherwise correct fix -- reverted actions/checkout from its pinned commit SHA back to the mutable @v4 tag, in advance-deploy-env.yml, the most-consumed reusable workflow in the org and one that runs with PROJECTS_KANBAN_TOKEN in scope. action-pins exists to fail exactly that diff. It did not run. A human reading the diff caught it, which is the review path D10 was written to stop depending on. Armed from day one rather than soft-failed into a backlog, because the tree was measured first: shellcheck --severity=error clean over both shell scripts, house-rules.sh clean over the same, and 24 `uses:` refs across 23 workflows with zero pin violations. ruff and gitleaks could not be run locally and get their first honest look on this PR; whatever they surface is fixed or baselined here rather than the gate being softened -- the same bargain e2e-test-agent's caller records in its own comment. action-pins-soft-fail is set to false explicitly rather than left to inherit soft-fail. It is the check whose absence let #168 through, and every other repo consumes these workflows at @main and inherits whatever refs they pin, so this repo has a specific duty to enforce it on itself. actionlint.yml stays separate. The two gates have deliberately different postures -- actionlint blocks from day one against a tree cleaned in the same change; code-quality ships soft-fail: true for repos still clearing backlog -- and folding them together would force one posture onto both. No paths: filter, so the check can be made required without leaving workflow-free PRs waiting on a status that never reports. Refs backend#1603, backend#1491 (D10), backend#1276. * fix(ci): drop the action-pins inputs -- @main does not declare them yet First push of this branch produced a startup_failure on the reusable call (run 31086491251): every other check reported normally and `Code quality` never started. Cause: `action-pins` and `action-pins-soft-fail` were added in #159, which is on `develop`; `main` still carries the five-job version of code-quality.yml. Callers must reference @main (Q3), and passing an input the @main callee does not declare fails the entire call before any job runs. Same merge-order trap as the #160 audit red: a change becomes consumable by @main callers when it is PROMOTED, not when it is merged. The other five jobs still run armed, so most of backend#1603 closes now. The arming diff is written verbatim in the file so the follow-up is mechanical once #159 reaches main. Refs backend#1603.
This branch changed `actions/checkout@11d5960a…` to the mutable `@v4` tag in advance-deploy-env.yml — the most-consumed reusable workflow in the org, and one that runs with PROJECTS_KANBAN_TOKEN in scope. A floating major tag can be repointed by the upstream owner at any commit, which is exactly what D10 pinning removes. Nothing in CI would have caught it: tracebloc/.github runs only its own actionlint.yml, which does not inspect action refs, and it does not call the code-quality workflow whose action-pins job exists to fail this diff. That gap is now backend#1603 (.github#171, merged) — but action-pins itself cannot arm here until #159 reaches main, so for the moment this restore is the only thing standing between the unpin and every repo that consumes these workflows at @main. No functional change to the backend#1600 fix.
… (backend#1600) (#168) * fix(kanban): advance the ISSUES each promoted PR closes, not just the PR (backend#1600) advance-deploy-env advanced only PRs; issues closed by a develop-merged PR were parked at On dev by the closure-router and never advanced when their code shipped, drifting permanently. For each PR in the push, resolve closingIssuesReferences (cross-repo aware) and advance each closing issue with the same monotonic guard, archived-skip and (new) dry-run behaviour. Adds a dry_run input; update_field short-circuits under it so both the PR and issue paths can be tested without writes. * fix(kanban): only advance CLOSED closing-issues (Bugbot .github#168 High) PRs merge to develop (not the default branch), so closingIssuesReferences lists still-OPEN issues; advancing those into deploy columns is wrong and reconcile bounces them to Backlog. Gate the advancement on issue.state == CLOSED. * sec(ci): restore the actions/checkout SHA pin (backend#1491 D10) This branch changed `actions/checkout@11d5960a…` to the mutable `@v4` tag in advance-deploy-env.yml — the most-consumed reusable workflow in the org, and one that runs with PROJECTS_KANBAN_TOKEN in scope. A floating major tag can be repointed by the upstream owner at any commit, which is exactly what D10 pinning removes. Nothing in CI would have caught it: tracebloc/.github runs only its own actionlint.yml, which does not inspect action refs, and it does not call the code-quality workflow whose action-pins job exists to fail this diff. That gap is now backend#1603 (.github#171, merged) — but action-pins itself cannot arm here until #159 reaches main, so for the moment this restore is the only thing standing between the unpin and every repo that consumes these workflows at @main. No functional change to the backend#1600 fix.
…backend#1603 step 2) (#178) The second half of backend#1603. When code-quality-caller.yml landed in #171 it could not arm action-pins: the job and its two inputs were added in #159 and existed on `develop` only, and a caller must reference @main (Q3). Passing an input the @main callee does not declare kills the entire reusable call with a startup_failure - not the one job, the whole call - measured on that branch's first push, run 31086491251. #159 has since promoted, and `main` now carries the six-job version with both inputs. Verified against the @main copy before flipping, rather than assuming the promotion carried what it looks like it carried. Hard-armed rather than left to inherit soft-fail. This is the check whose absence let .github#168 revert actions/checkout from a pinned commit SHA to the mutable @v4 tag with nothing in CI to object - in advance-deploy-env.yml, the most-consumed reusable workflow in the org, running with PROJECTS_KANBAN_TOKEN in scope. Every other repo consumes these workflows at @main and inherits whatever refs they pin, so this repo has a specific duty to enforce the rule it publishes. Re-measured the tree before arming: 24 `uses:` refs across 23 workflows, zero violations. Arming imports no backlog.
…d (backend#1668) (#215) `.github`'s own entry said "action-pins itself stays unarmed until #159 reaches main". #159 reached main and action-pins was armed on 2026-08-06 (backend#1603 step 2), but the line was never updated -- so the single source of truth denied a control the repo actually has. Measured on origin/develop: this repo's `code-quality-caller.yml` passes `action-pins: true` + `action-pins-soft-fail: false`, and `quality / action-pins` is a REQUIRED status check on develop. The original caveat is kept rather than deleted, because it explains WHY arming had to wait: a caller may only pass inputs the @main callee declares, or the whole call dies with startup_failure. Comment-only; selftest re-run: 97 pass, 0 fail. Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Closes the recurrence class backend#1492 documents: while #1446 pinned an action, #1449 added a new unpinned call site of the same action in a non-overlapping hunk — both merged conflict-free; only a human diff-read caught it. The gate makes that silent recurrence impossible:
uses:values that cannot be verified (e.g.${{ ... }}expressions) are findings, not skips (property 2). Allowed:./local,tracebloc/*@main(Q3 — any other tracebloc ref is drift),owner/action@<40-hex>(D10),docker://…@sha256:….@mainrun, but advisory viaaction-pins-soft-fail: true(theformat-soft-failmigration shape) so the armed repos don't redden while #1491's fleet sweep is still merging. Flip the default once that lands — that flip IS the arming step, and the ticket stays open until it happens.The job's own annotations on this PR demonstrate the finding format against .github's own workflows.

Changes org-wide CI behavior for every code-quality caller (new default job), but findings are advisory by default; mis-parsing edge-case
uses:syntax could produce false positives once soft-fail is turned off.Overview
Adds an
action-pinsjob to the reusable code-quality workflow so every run scans all workflow files for supply-chain pinning (D10), not just PR diffs—closing the case where a second PR could add a new unpinneduses:without conflicting with a pin fix.Callers get new inputs
action-pins(default on) andaction-pins-soft-fail(default true, same migration pattern asformat-soft-fail) so repos with an existing unpinned backlog get annotations and a step summary without failing until the #1491 fleet sweep finishes.The scanner is an inline Python step: line-level
uses:grammar, allows./local actions,tracebloc/*@main, 40-char SHA pins, anddocker://…@sha256:…; flags unpinned refs, non-@maintracebloc refs, and unverifiable expression refs.
