Pin GitHub Actions
Pin GitHub Actions: what it does, its label on each agent, what it misses, and examples.
Catalog policy pin-github-actions, version 0.0.7, labelled blocks on Claude Code.
What it does
Blocks uses: of an action/reusable workflow at a movable ref (not a lowercase 40-hex SHA) and a docker:// image without @sha256, quoted, JSON or flow; an alias, escape or value off the uses line is refused. Local ./ passes. Scope: .github/workflows/, .github/actions/, action.y*ml. Line regex, no YAML parse: container image tags, impostor SHAs, a tag named as 40 hex pass. Waiver: 'pragma: allowlist unpinned-action' same line. Person's commit: honoured. Agent: only if in HEAD; MCP gateway: never.
