fix(ci): codeql-action v4.38.1 -> v4.38.0 SHA pin + dependabot hold (estate-wide startup_failure) - #143
Merged
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.

Add CodeQL to the existing ignore list.
.github/dependabot.yml:29 repeats ignore in the same GitHub Actions update mapping. Dependabot can let the second list replace the first, which removes the existing Ruby and Jekyll ignores.

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
codeql-action/*refs (tag@v4.38.1or SHA1c5b675…) re-pinned to the v4.38.0 commitb96794f015dfd88f77b49b1c93e0fa7110f94c63(green on deed-ecosystem; satisfies SHA-pin policy).actions.lockre-keyed where present (dependabot bumpsuses:without regenerating the lock → governance linter failure).dependabot.yml: full hold ongithub/codeql-action— scopedversions:ignores do NOT hold on this path (nexia-list#101 re-raised the bump in SHA form within an hour, copying the inline warning comment verbatim while swapping the SHA).Canonical fix at the estate origin: standards#973. Batch-mates: nexia-list#100 (merged), hypatia#828, vexometer#90, rsr-template-repo#191, empty-linter#99, modshells#119, plasma-parser-writer#98, robodog-defensive-systems-lab#145, twingate-helm-deploy#138, wokelang#147, laniakea#91, maa-framework#198, methodologies#92, rpa-elysium#134, scripts#136, universal-chat-extractor#165, verisimdb#280. Lift the hold once upstream clears 4.38.1 or a canary verifies green.
