fix(ci): pin third-party actions to full commit SHAs - #317
Conversation
The account's Actions policy requires a full-length SHA ref. A tag or branch ref is refused at startup — `startup_failure`, no jobs, "this workflow graph cannot be shown" — so these workflows could not run at all. This resolves each ref to the commit it currently points at and records the ref in a trailing comment, e.g. `actions/checkout@<sha> # v4`. `dtolnay/rust-toolchain` takes its toolchain from the ref itself, so those steps also gained an explicit `with: toolchain:` input; without it, a SHA ref would silently lose the channel. No behaviour is intended to change beyond the pins.

WalkthroughThe workflows now reference GitHub Actions and the SMTP notification action by immutable commit SHA. Existing version comments, workflow steps, inputs, cache keys, permissions, and timeouts remain unchanged. ChangesWorkflow action pinning
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The workflows use immutable action pins, but the SMTP notification pin is less auditable because its original version is not recorded. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Keep the original action version in the trailing comment.
The PR objective requires each SHA pin to retain its original action reference. This line records only the actions.lock note and omits v0.3.0, unlike the other pinned actions. Add v0.3.0 to the trailing comment so future pin updates remain auditable.
