Wow, I had no clue about how many ways it was possible to get burned with Actions - as an ME nerd, I've set up a few CI/CD workflows, and if I recall correctly, while I was reading through the documentation for GitHub Actions (circa 2022) there wasn't any mention of cybersecurity best practices in the general docs. Is that generally considered best practice, or at least acceptable?

I'm not a programmer by trade- I generally write one-off or two-off code, but that's changing as I get deeper into simulation land. For me, reading the entirety of the docs is something that generally happens only when I'm troubleshooting something or an LLM dragged me significantly further than my understanding and I have to go learn how a library or API works.
