ci(rhodibot): switch to the report-only canary (standards#759) - #80
Conversation
The RSR workflow here is the mutating variant: weekly cron, write permissions,
glob deletes, a bulk SPDX `sed` sweep the licence policy forbids, a
`${{ steps.fix.outputs.FIXES }}` injection sink, and a hardcoded personal
e-mail. Replaced with the canary the template ships: same schedule, same drift
signal, reports instead of mutating.
Refs hyperpolymath/standards#759 (option (a), canary propagation).
📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe workflow now operates as a report-only compliance canary. It detects conditions that previously triggered automatic fixes, reports warnings, and fails when drift exists. It no longer creates pull requests or modifies repository files. ChangesCompliance Canary
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The canary can execute a changed upstream checkout action without a repository review. Pinning the known v7.0.1 commit removes this bounded supply-chain exposure. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Pin actions/checkout to its immutable commit SHA.
The repository uses SHA-pinned checkout actions in comparable workflows. This mutable tag can change without a repository review and can execute with repository read access.

The RSR workflow in this repository is the mutating variant of rhodibot: it runs on a
weekly cron with
contents: write+pull-requests: write, deletes files by glob, andbulk-rewrites SPDX headers — which the standing licence policy forbids. It also interpolates
${{ steps.fix.outputs.FIXES }}into arun:block (repo-derived filenames, soattacker-influenceable) and hardcodes a personal e-mail address.
This replaces it with the report-only canary that the estate template already ships — the
already-approved design, not a new one. Same weekly schedule, same drift signal, no mutation:
it reports what an auto-fixer would have changed and fails the run when it finds drift,
rather than editing anything. Licence/SPDX drift is reported for manual, owner-only
correction; rhodibot must never edit a licence header.
Part of the
standards#759migration (canary propagation, option (a)). The workflow'suses:pins are unchanged, so
actions.lockis unaffected.
