fix(ci): defer actions.lock verification to governance in the workflow linter - #437
Merged

Conversation
…w linter The copied "Verify immutable action lockfile" step pinned its own gh-actions-lock v0.1.6 binary. v0.1.6 cannot read lockfile v0.0.3, which every current `gh actions-lock` writes, so the step failed whenever a current tool refreshed the lock (proof-burrower#111/#112). It also kept a second version pin that drifts from the estate's. Governance already verifies the lock through standards scripts/update-actions-lock.sh. That is one tested implementation, with one pin, and it accepts reusable-workflow coverage. The step is removed and a comment points at the gate. No `uses:` changes, so actions.lock is untouched. Owner decision 2026-10-14: drop the lock step from copied linters; the estate moves to gh-actions-lock v0.2.0 in hyperpolymath/standards#1250.

The pinned lock tool leaves the dale.

While carrots wait beside the specs.

- Line 40: Update the comment near the `update-actions-lock.sh` reference to
avoid claiming there is one `gh-actions-lock` pin: governance owns the verifier
but does not pin the extension. Do not change the governance workflow.
- Line 40: Ensure every applicable workflow-linter run validates actions.lock,
including runs on non-default branches, by invoking the shared verifier
referenced as update-actions-lock.sh or extending the governance.yml triggers to
cover those branches.

…tes) (#436) ## Summary This is stack PR 4, on #435. It covers the prerequisites that let workflows move to KYAML (YAML-POLICY §3.4) without breaking the repo's own checks. It converts no workflow. The conversion waits on the standards#1025 gate. **History rebuilt, 2026-10-14 (owner decision: force-with-lease).** This PR is now one commit on #435's rebuilt branch, with no merge commits, so it rebase-merges cleanly. Its tree is byte-identical to the old head (bbdd4c2) merged with `main`. On that tip, which also has #437's linter change, the checks pass: `test-issue-regressions.sh`, the duplicate-key check (35 files clean) and the allow-fail check (14 units). ## Changes Three local scripts read workflows line by line. Each one was wrong on the KYAML that `yq -o kyaml` writes: | Script | Wrong on KYAML before | Now | |---|---|---| | `check-workflow-duplicate-keys.sh` | Flagged every KYAML workflow. Sequence items are `{` lines with no `- `, so sibling steps looked like duplicate keys. | A bare `{` opens a fresh scope. `}`/`]` lines name no key. A quoted scalar item (`"echo: hi",`) is not a key. | | `check-allow-fail-expiry.sh` | Counted `continue-on-error: false,` as an allow-fail unit because of the trailing comma. Missed `"continue-on-error":`. | Both handled. yq keeps the same-line `# allow-fail:` mark through the conversion. | | `test-issue-regressions.sh` | `^permissions:` cannot see a top-level key indented inside the root `{`. | Reads top-level `permissions` with yq. Refuses any yq but mikefarah v4, because the `yq` on PATH can be the Python jq wrapper (D293). | ## Verification - New KYAML fixtures in `test-issue-regressions.sh`: - a duplicate `with` (must fail); - a clean multi-step file with quoted `with:` scalar items (must pass); - allow-fail `false,` not counted while a quoted key is counted; - top-level permissions accepted; - job-level-only permissions rejected. - Negative controls: the suite fails with the old duplicate-key checker and with the old allow-fail checker. It passes with the new ones. - Each of the 35 real workflows passes both as committed and as rendered by `yq -o kyaml`, with 35 files clean and 14 allow-fail units each time. - The suite exits 1 when the only `yq` is the Python wrapper. ## Not here - **The governance-reusable pin bump.** The pinned `@571cc734` still tests `grep -q "^permissions:"`. It has to move to a standards ref that reads workflows with yq before any workflow is converted. That bump has to regenerate the tool-owned `actions.lock`. `gh actions-lock` writes GitHub owner and repo ids and needs an authenticated token, which this session doesn't have. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) https://claude.ai/code/session_019a95kk88TZ1iegsBK3kox3 --- _Generated by [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code/session_019a95kk88TZ1iegsBK3kox3)_ Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
The copied "Verify immutable action lockfile" step in
workflow-linter.ymlpins its own gh-actions-lock v0.1.6, which cannot read lockfile v0.0.3. Every currentgh actions-lockwrites v0.0.3, so the step fails the first time a current tool refreshes this repo's lock. That has already happened in proof-burrower (#111/#112 there). The step was also a second verifier with a second version pin.Governance already verifies the lock through standards
scripts/update-actions-lock.sh. This repo's governance pin (571cc734) runs it inside its workflow-lint job. That is one tested implementation, with one pin, and it accepts reusable-workflow coverage.Owner decision 2026-10-14 (selector): drop the lock step from copied linters, and move the estate to gh-actions-lock v0.2.0 (hyperpolymath/standards#1250). Pilot repos first: proof-burrower, echidna, echidnabot.
