Modernizes the repository's GitHub Actions toolchain, hardens action references against upstream tag movement, and fixes the release packaging failure seen in run 33765314608.

Changes

  • Actions security and runtime: Updates every action and reusable workflow to its latest stable release, pins all 62 references to immutable commit SHAs, and moves workflows to Node.js 24.
  • Package manager: Pins pnpm 11.25.0 and explicitly allows only the dependency build scripts required by this workspace.
  • Release reliability: Fixes both update_package_json_files.mjs invocations to pass the script's expected two arguments. Uses the npm bundled with Node 24, matching npm’s current trusted-publishing guidance.
  • Bot credentials: Removes PRISMA_BOT_TOKEN from checkout steps. Workflows that must push or dispatch still authenticate explicitly at those operations so bot-authored pushes continue to trigger downstream workflows.

Why

Full-SHA action pins prevent mutable tags from changing CI behavior unexpectedly. Node 24 and pnpm 11 remove deprecated action runtimes while the narrow pnpm build allowlist preserves supply-chain safeguards. Explicit push-time bot authentication limits credential persistence without changing release automation behavior.

Verification

  • corepack pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
  • corepack pnpm test:scripts (19 tests passed)
  • corepack pnpm exec prettier --check '.github/workflows/*.{yml,yaml}' package.json pnpm-workspace.yaml
  • YAML/LSP diagnostics for all changed workflow and config files
  • git diff --check
  • Verified all 62 uses: references are full-SHA pinned with comments
  • Verified workflows contain no Node 20/22 setup, dangerous pnpm build bypass, extra release-script argument, or bot token passed to checkout

  • Changes

    • Scheduled checks for newly published extension releases are now available only through manual triggering.

Walkthrough

The pull request upgrades workflows to Node.js 24 and pnpm 11. It pins GitHub Actions and reusable workflows to commit SHAs. Several jobs move Git authentication from checkout tokens to GH_TOKEN and gh auth setup-git. Published-extension workflows pass values through environment variables. Release commands and npm versions are updated. Selected workspace packages are allowed to run build scripts.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to cfd21

The workflow modernization updates release tooling and publishing behavior, but npm selection in the release job remains recorded as mutable, so publishing behavior could vary between runs. Resolve or explicitly accept this release reproducibility risk before merge.

In @.github/workflows/e2e_check_for_new_published_vsix.yml:
- Line 17: Add workflow- or job-level permissions limiting GITHUB_TOKEN to
contents: read in .github/workflows/e2e_check_for_new_published_vsix.yml at
lines 17-17, .github/workflows/e2e_published_vsix.yml at lines 33-33, and
.github/workflows/e2e_published_vsix.yml at lines 59-59. Keep the explicit
PRISMA_BOT_TOKEN usage unchanged.

In @.github/workflows/e2e_published_vsix.yml:
- Line 33: Disable checkout credential persistence by setting
persist-credentials to false on both checkout steps in
.github/workflows/e2e_published_vsix.yml (lines 33-33 and 59-59), and on the
checkout steps in .github/workflows/e2e_check_for_new_published_vsix.yml (17-17)
and .github/workflows/codeql-analysis.yml (33-33); leave the explicit GH_TOKEN
usage in the after-test script unchanged.

In @.github/workflows/PR_build_extension.yml:
- Around line 25-27: Harden checkout authentication in the build jobs: in
.github/workflows/PR_build_extension.yml at lines 25-27, update the checkout
step to disable credential persistence and add an explicit least-privilege
job-level permissions block; apply the same changes to
.github/workflows/continuous-integration.yml at line 39. Preserve the existing
checkout refs and job behavior.

In @.github/workflows/pr-code-security.yml:
- Line 11: Update the workflow calling the pinned secret_detection workflow to
declare GITLEAKS_LICENSE under workflow_call.secrets and pass only
GITLEAKS_LICENSE explicitly, replacing secrets: inherit while retaining
automatic GITHUB_TOKEN access.

In @.github/workflows/release.yml:
- Line 183: Update the release job’s npm installation command to use the exact
tested npm version instead of the mutable ^11.5.1 range, preserving the existing
global installation behavior.
