📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Clarified severity-ranking guidance, including warn and informational aliases and the handling of advisory or unrecognised values.
    • Expanded constraint-repair documentation to explain retired-constraint removal, preservation of writable fields and source information, optional integration-bypass removal, and validation errors.
    • Documented GitHub Actions detection and SARIF reconciliation behaviour, including workflow eligibility, verification, audit updates, and error conditions.

Walkthrough

The changes update comments and method documentation in three scripts. They describe severity aliases, constraint repair planning, remote action detection, SARIF reconciliation, verification, audit output, and error conditions. No executable behaviour or public declarations changed.

Changes

Script documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Severity handling documentation
scripts/apply-baseline.sh
The severity-ranking comment documents warn and informational aliases. It clarifies that advisory and unrecognised values do not block.
Repair and reconciliation documentation
scripts/plan-ruleset-constraint-repair.rb, scripts/reconcile-scorecard-actions-lock.rb
The documentation describes retained fields, unchanged source, verified bypass removal, validation errors, remote action detection, SARIF updates, audit output, verification, and failure conditions.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

The change is documentation-only, but callers may rely on an incomplete exception contract when planning ruleset repairs.

Document the missing-key failure explicitly.

When uninstalled_app_id is supplied and source lacks bypass_actors, source.fetch('bypass_actors') raises KeyError before the ArgumentError validation. Either convert the missing field to ArgumentError, or document KeyError for this case.
