ci: CodeQL advanced setup so fork pull requests can satisfy the gate - #58
Merged
Conversation
Default-setup check runs are never created on fork pull requests, so the six required Analyze contexts are unsatisfiable for external contributors. The advanced-setup workflow runs on every pull request and push to main; its CodeQL (<language>) contexts replace the default-setup ones in branch protection.

The Go extractor traces the toolchain present at init time; installing Go afterwards leaves the tracer with nothing to wrap (no source seen). Signed-off-by: MohammadHaroonAbuomar <40180927+MohammadHaroonAbuomar@users.noreply.github.com>

CodeQL default setup never creates its check runs on fork pull requests, so the six required
Analyze (*)contexts are unsatisfiable for any external contribution (live example: #57, approved and otherwise green, refused with "6 of 17 required status checks are expected"). This adds the advanced-setup workflow — six languages, build-mode none, pull_request + main + weekly triggers — whoseCodeQL (<language>)contexts report on every head, fork or branch. Follow-up (repo settings, after this merges and proves green on main): swap the required contexts and disable default setup to avoid double analysis.
