Most actions in this repo were several major versions behind, which is
why every CI run has been emitting Node 20 deprecation warnings.
Pinning every action to a commit SHA (with the version as a trailing
comment) means each CI run uses the exact code that was reviewed when
the bump landed, instead of whatever a maintainer last pointed the major
tag at. Dependabot is configured to group all action bumps into one
weekly PR with a 7-day cooldown.
Worth flagging:
- The Claude Code action ships ~daily but the model is set separately
via `--model` in `claude_args`, so SHA-pinning the action gives
reproducibility without locking the model.
- The kubeconform container is digest-pinned
(`docker://image:tag@sha256:...`). Dependabot's github-actions ecosystem
doesn't track `docker://` references ([explicit TODO in
dependabot-core](https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/blob/main/github_actions/lib/dependabot/github_actions/file_parser.rb)),
so it needs manual bumps either way - but the digest pin protects
against tag repointing for free.
