Resolves #1117

Description

PR #1116 added workflow lockfiles on rewrite/main (.github/workflows/actions.lock plus a lockfile job running gh actions-lock --verify).

main was not locked, and cannot inherit the lock from rewrite/main by merging because checks.yml has no rust-checks and deploy-website.yml differs.

This PR:

  • Narrows mutable tags across all workflows on main to exact semantic versions.
  • Pinned amannn/action-semantic-pull-request to v5.5.3.
  • Adds the actions.lock file generated with gh actions-lock (v0.4.1).
  • Adds the lockfile verification job in checks.yml.
  • Adds an empty-frontmatter changeset (.changeset/actions-lockfile.md) per repository convention.

Verification

  • gh actions-lock --verify: Validated all 7 workflows (All 7 workflows valid).
  • Unit tests & CLI tests passing (pnpm run test:unit, pnpm run test:cli).
  • Changeset validation passing (pnpm exec changeset status --since origin/main).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated the versions of tools used in release, deployment, and pull request workflows.
    • Added a workflow check to verify recorded action versions.
    • The changes affect workflow maintenance and do not alter application behavior.

PR #1116 added workflow lockfiles on rewrite/main (.github/workflows/actions.lock
plus a lockfile job running gh actions-lock --verify).

main was not locked, and cannot inherit the lock from rewrite/main by merging
because checks.yml has no rust-checks and deploy-website.yml differs. This
locks main's actions, pins mutable tags, adds the lockfile verify job to
checks.yml, and writes the lockfile generated against main's workflows.

Walkthrough

The pull request updates action references across GitHub workflows to specific versions. It also adds a checks job that installs gh-actions-lock and verifies the workflow lockfile. A Changeset describes the lockfile and action version updates.

Changes: Workflow action pinning and verification

The checks workflow adds a lockfile job that runs gh actions-lock --verify with read-only contents permission. The Changeset describes the lockfile’s advisory status and the action version update.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~12 minutes

Change: Other

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 0d3c2

This change narrows GitHub Actions references to exact versions and adds a lockfile verification check. The release workflow keeps its immutable Docker action pins, so no remaining merge risk is identified.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "ci: lock the actions on main too (#1117)" names the main change: pinning GitHub Actions workflows on main to exact versions and adding an actions.lock with a lockfile verification job. It follows the conventional commit style. The title is specific and matches the linked issue and the raw summary. The "(#1117)" suffix refers to the linked issue number, which is minor noise but does not make the title misleading.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #1117 requires four coding steps on main: (1) run gh actions-lock against main's workflows, (2) commit the rewritten uses: lines, (3) commit actions.lock, and (4) add the same lockfile job to checks.yml. The reviewed head meets each step. The file list at head includes .github/workflows/actions.lock. The checks.yml diff adds a lockfile job that installs gh-actions-lock pinned to v0.4.1 and runs gh actions-lock --verify. The diffs across the workflow files replace mutable tags with exact versions in uses: lines, including actions/checkout@v4.4.0, pnpm/action-setup@v4.3.0, actions/setup-node@v4.4.0, and amannn/action-semantic-pull-request@v5.5.3. The issue's own Description cites the lock as needing to match main's workflows, which this PR now provides. The verification run (All 7 workflows valid) is author-reported. I did not run gh, so I did not independently confirm the lock contents. The issue does not require a specific commit ordering, so the PR is not blocked by the pending sync.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

All changes support the #1117 objective. The changes are uses: pin rewrites across the workflow files (checks.yml, changesets.yml, dependabot-changeset.yml, deploy-website-preview.yml, deploy-website.yml, pr-title.yml, release.yml). They also include the new actions.lock, the lockfile job in checks.yml, and the changeset .changeset/actions-lockfile.md. The changeset follows the repository convention for CI-only changes, and the summary states that the lock remains advisory and runtime behavior is unchanged. No change unrelated to workflow pinning or lock verification appears in the summary or in the checks.yml diff I read. I did not read the full diffs of the other workflow files, so this verdict rests on their summaries.

Preserve the Docker action SHA pins during advisory adoption.

These three changes replace full commit SHAs with mutable version tags. The changeset states that the lockfile remains advisory until Workflow lockfiles is enabled. (github.com)

If an upstream tag moves after verification, a later release can execute replacement code with the job's packages: write token. The checks job does not gate release execution. Runtime lockfile protection is separate from the CLI verification check. (docs.github.com)

Keep the existing SHA references and matching lock entries until runtime lockfile enforcement is enabled.

Based on learnings, version tags remain mutable; the regression is replacing SHA pins, not choosing one tag style over another.

Also applies to: 50-50, 110-110
