What

Write the canonical estate secret-scanner caller to .github/workflows/secret-scanner.yml so this repo emits scan / gitleaks, the context the estate Secret-Scan-Floor ruleset (D243/D244) requires. The previous inline scanner jobs emitted bare contexts (e.g. gitleaks) that cannot satisfy the floor; the reusable deliberately drops TruffleHog as redundant with gitleaks.

Job key scan; reusable hyperpolymath/standards/.github/workflows/secret-scanner-reusable.yml@74d2f66f575246cf6e313ae7775f44df6e097ff2; push trigger on main. actionlint clean (previous file findings: 0). Commit via GraphQL createCommitOnBranch (GitHub-signed, valid: true).

Deferred red checks

Secret-Scan-Floor (D243/D244) requires the context `scan / gitleaks` estate-wide. The previous inline scanner jobs emitted bare contexts (e.g. `gitleaks`) that cannot satisfy the floor; the reusable deliberately drops TruffleHog as redundant with gitleaks. Write the canonical caller: job key `scan`, reusable pinned to standards@74d2f66, push trigger on the default branch `main`.

actionlint: new file clean (findings in previous file: 0).

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated the automated secret-scanning process. Scans continue to run for pull requests and changes to the main branch, with existing access restrictions retained.

Walkthrough

The workflow keeps its pull-request and main push triggers, concurrency settings and read-only permissions. It replaces three local secret-scanning jobs with a pinned reusable workflow call under the existing scan job, and inherits secrets.

Changes

Secret scanner workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Reusable scanner integration
.github/workflows/secret-scanner.yml
The workflow comments describe the shared scanner and required scan job context. The scan job calls a pinned reusable workflow and inherits secrets. The pull-request and main push triggers remain unchanged.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to b096c

This change swaps local secret-scanning jobs for a pinned shared scanner workflow. Merge risk is minimal; the only follow-up is correcting a misleading comment about secret inheritance.

Architecture Summary

Architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to b096c

Review details

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in .github/workflows/secret-scanner.yml: The workflow comments now document the shared scanner, required scan job context and inherited secrets. The pull-request and main push triggers remain unchanged; the previous guardrail comment is removed.
  • observed — Modified behavior in .github/workflows/secret-scanner.yml: The local TruffleHog, Gitleaks and Rust secret-scanning jobs are removed. The scan job now calls the pinned reusable secret-scanner workflow and inherits secrets.

A rabbit checks the scanner’s trail,
As secret scans run without fail.
The scan job calls a shared flow,
With secrets passed where they must go.
Then hops away beneath the moon.

The reusable at standards@74d2f66 references no secrets: gitleaks runs as a checksum-verified binary, not gitleaks-action, so `secrets: inherit` only forwarded every repository and organisation secret to it (CWE-250, flagged by CodeRabbit and Hypatia WH008). The earlier comment calling it REQUIRED was copied from the reusable's own stale header note and is corrected here.
