Security & CI: Remove hardcoded secrets and harden workflows#163mertcano wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
This PR hardens the organization's CI pipelines by removing committed secrets from the check workflow. Hardcoded Secrets Removed: Updated .github/workflows/check.yaml to remove committed issuer and verifier private-key literals, as well as the placeholder ANTHROPIC_API_KEY value. Ephemeral Keys: The workflow now generates example signing keys ephemerally at runtime using the repository’s existing secret-generation helpers (examples/issuer/bin/secret and examples/verifier/bin/secret), exporting them strictly for the duration of the job.

- Line 1: Normalize the complete check workflow file to LF (\n) line endings
instead of CRLF, preserving its YAML content, then rerun YAMLlint to verify the
newline-format error is resolved.
- Around line 15-17: Remove the committed ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, ISSUER_PRIVATE_KEY,
and VERIFIER_PRIVATE_KEY values from the workflow; generate the signing keys at
runtime using the existing helpers, and only configure the API key if the checks
actually require it. Rotate either private key if it has been used outside
isolated tests.
