official gh actions-lock lockfile documentation stale action reference dependency mismatch enforcement

💡 Result:

<search_synthesis>
The GitHub Actions dependency lockfile system is a security and stability feature designed to pin workflow dependencies to verified commit SHAs [1][2]. The system centers on the.github/workflows/actions.lock file, which acts as the authoritative record of the resolved transitive dependency graph for a repository&#39;s workflows [1][3]. Key components and enforcement mechanisms include: 1. Lockfile Management: The gh actions-lock CLI extension is the primary tool for generating, maintaining, and verifying these lockfiles [2][4]. It scans workflows, pins actions to exact commits, and ensures the lockfile remains synchronized with the workflow definitions [2]. 2. Enforcement and Mismatches: When a repository is onboarded to the lockfile system, GitHub enforces that all workflow dependencies are present in the lockfile [2]. If a workflow references an action version that is not pinned in the lockfile, or if there is a mismatch between the workflow&#39;s referenced ref and the lockfile&#39;s recorded commit, the workflow run will fail [2][5][6]. This enforcement occurs before any job starts, often resulting in a startup failure [5][6]. 3. Handling Stale References: If workflow references are updated (e.g., bumping an action version) without re-running gh actions-lock, the lockfile becomes stale [5]. Because the lockfile no longer matches the workflow&#39;s requirements, the system rejects the workflow [5]. To resolve this, developers must run gh actions-lock to regenerate the lockfile with the updated pins [2][5][6]. 4. Security Features: The system includes verification to prevent forgeries [2]. It ensures that the recorded SHA exists within the referenced branch or tag, and it blocks redirects or identity mismatches at runtime to mitigate risks such as impostor commit attacks [2]. The authoritative schema and parser for these lockfiles are maintained in the github/actions-lockfile repository, which provides the technical definition used by GitHub&#39;s tooling [1][3]. Development is ongoing, and the schema is currently evolving toward a stable v1.0.0 release [1].

Pin to an exact version and expect breaking > changes between minor versions until then. The authoritative definition of the GitHub Actions dependency lockfile format, plus a Go parser for it. The lockfile records the resolved transitive dependency graph for a repository&`#39`;s workflows so tools can audit and verify the exact action pins in use. ## Background This project provides the shared, authoritative lockfile format that GitHub Actions tooling uses to record and verify resolved dependency pins. It is part of GitHub&`#39`;s broader Workflow Dependency Pinning effort, and the schema and parser will continue to evolve toward a stable `v1.0.0`. Contributions are welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md. ## Installation ```sh go get github.com/github/actions-lockfile/go/pkg/lockfile ``` The Go module lives under `go/` so the repository can grow additional language bindings around the same lockfile schema. ## Usage ### Parse a lockfile and look up a workflow&`#39`;s pins ```go package main import ( "fmt" "os" lockfile "github.com/github/actions-lockfile/go/pkg/lockfile" ) func main() { contents, err := os.ReadFile(lockfile.Path) // ".github/workflows/actions.lock" if err != nil { panic(err) } file, err := lockfile.Parse(contents) if err != nil { panic(err) } pins, ok := file.LookupWorkflow(".github/workflows/release.yml") if !ok { fmt.Println("workflow not present in lockfile") return } for _, key := range pins { fmt.Println(key) // e.g. actions/checkout@v6.0.2 } } ``` ### Surface structured parse errors `Parse` returns a `*lockfile.ParseError` carrying line and column for semantic failures, so callers can anchor diagnostics on the lockfile itself instead of scraping yaml.v3&`#39`;s error string. ```go file, err := lockfile.Parse(contents) if err != nil { var perr *lockfile.ParseError if errors.As(err, &perr) { fmt.Printf("%s:%d:%d: %s\n", lockfile.Path, perr.Line, perr.Column, perr.Msg) return } panic(err) } _ = file ``` ## Schema The lockfile is a YAML document whose shape is defined by a JSON Schema 2020-12 document embedded in the package and reachable via `lockfile.Schema()`. The current schema version is `v0.0.2` (`schema/lockfile-v0.0.2.json`). The on-disk file lives at `Path` (`.github/workflows/actions.lock`) and has three top-level keys: ```yaml version: v0.0.2 workflows: # workflow path -> flat, transitive list of pin keys .github/workflows/release.yml: - actions/checkout@v6.0.2 dependencies: # pin key -> resolved action metadata actions/checkout@v6.0.2: ref: v6.0.2 commit: sha1-de0fac2e... owner_id: 44036562 repo_id: 197814629 ``` A pin key is `OWNER/REPO@REF`. The same key appears in both `workflows` (as flat transitive lists) and `dependencies` (as deduplicated graph entries with `uses:` links to direct dependencies). The parser also reads v0.0.1 lockfiles (which used `tag`/`branch` fields and `:algo-hex` suffixed pin keys) and normalizes them to the v0.0.2 `File` struct. Use `ParseWithPolicy` with a `VersionPolicy` to control which versions are accepted. ## Compatibility and stability - The Go module follows semver.

The > lockfile format, command flags, and behavior may change without notice between > releases. Use it, file issues, and expect rough edges. ## Background gh-actions-lock is part of GitHub&`#39`;s Workflow Dependency Pinning effort. It gives repositories a lockfile that pins every workflow dependency to a verified commit, so what runs on the runner is exactly what you locked. Development is ongoing and behavior may still change. Contributions are welcome. See CONTRIBUTING.md to get started. ## Requirements Requires the `gh` CLI. Install it first, then install the extension: ```bash gh extension install github/gh-actions-lock ``` ## Usage Scan every workflow under `.github/workflows/` directory, pin each resolvable action to a SHA, and update the lockfile: ```bash gh actions-lock ``` After the initial run to onboard workflows, you will need to run `gh actions-lock` when: - A new workflow is created that has `uses` dependencies. - An existing workflow adds or removes `uses` dependencies. A full-directory run (`gh actions-lock` with no path arguments) also prunes lockfile entries for workflows that have been deleted from `.github/workflows/`, dropping any dependencies left orphaned by the removal. Scoped runs that name specific workflows never prune out-of-scope entries. Pins to branches or partial versions (e.g. `main`, `v4`) are trusted from the lockfile and not re-resolved on a normal run. To bump them to the current upstream commit, run: ```bash gh actions-lock --relock ``` `--relock` re-resolves refs that have legitimately moved and rewrites the lockfile to the new SHA. Suspicious pins whose recorded commit is no longer reachable upstream are left as errors — use `--accept-moved` to re-resolve those as well. ### Self repository actions (`$/…`) `uses: $/…` references an action or reusable workflow in the **same repository** as the defining file, resolved at the **running commit**. Because it always resolves to that repository&amp;`#39`;s running SHA it is **inherently pinned** — no lockfile entry is required, and it is valid anywhere a relative `./…` reference is: ```yaml steps: - uses: $/actions/my-action # same-repo action, inherently pinned jobs: call: uses: $/.github/workflows/reusable.yml # same-repo reusable workflow ``` A trailing `@ref` (e.g. `$/actions/my-action@v1`) is rejected — the ref is always the running commit. Same-repo `./…` composite action references are automatically converted to `$/…` on fix runs. This rewrites `./…` steps both in your workflows and in your in-repo composite action definitions (`action.yml`). Only `./…` paths that resolve to an in-repo action file are rewritten. To leave `./…` refs untouched, opt out with `--no-migrate-local-actions`: ```bash gh actions-lock --no-migrate-local-actions ``` ## How it works A repo gets a lockfile (located at `.github/workflows/actions.lock`) and workflows are onboarded to the lockfile on a per-workflow basis. Workflows that are onboarded to the lockfile enforce that all dependencies are present in the lockfile and guarantees that the locked commit for an Action is what&`#39`;s executed on the runner. Lockfiles are also verified for forgeries. The sha must exist in the refs it&`#39`;s stated to exist in.

Contributions are welcome — see CONTRIBUTING.md. ## Installation ```sh go get github.com/github/actions-lockfile/go/pkg/lockfile ``` The Go module lives under `go/` so the repository can grow additional language bindings around the same lockfile schema. ## Usage ### Parse a lockfile and look up a workflow&`#39`;s pins ```go package main import ( "fmt" "os" lockfile "github.com/github/actions-lockfile/go/pkg/lockfile" ) func main() { contents, err := os.ReadFile(lockfile.Path) // ".github/workflows/actions.lock" if err != nil { panic(err) } file, err := lockfile.Parse(contents) if err != nil { panic(err) } pins, ok := file.LookupWorkflow(".github/workflows/release.yml") if !ok { fmt.Println("workflow not present in lockfile") return } for _, key := range pins { fmt.Println(key) // e.g. actions/checkout@v6.0.2 } } ``` ### Surface structured parse errors `Parse` returns a `*lockfile.ParseError` carrying line and column for semantic failures, so callers can anchor diagnostics on the lockfile itself instead of scraping yaml.v3&`#39`;s error string. ```go file, err := lockfile.Parse(contents) if err != nil { var perr *lockfile.ParseError if errors.As(err, &perr) { fmt.Printf("%s:%d:%d: %s\n", lockfile.Path, perr.Line, perr.Column, perr.Msg) return } panic(err) } _ = file ``` ## Schema The lockfile is a YAML document whose shape is defined by a JSON Schema 2020-12 document embedded in the package and reachable via `lockfile.Schema()`. The current schema version is `v0.0.2` (`schema/lockfile-v0.0.2.json`). The on-disk file lives at `Path` (`.github/workflows/actions.lock`) and has three top-level keys: ```yaml version: v0.0.2 workflows: # workflow path -> flat, transitive list of pin keys .github/workflows/release.yml: - actions/checkout@v6.0.2 dependencies: # pin key -> resolved action metadata actions/checkout@v6.0.2: ref: v6.0.2 commit: sha1-de0fac2e... owner_id: 44036562 repo_id: 197814629 ``` A pin key is `OWNER/REPO@REF`.

Actions were bumped in the workflows and `gh actions-lock` was never re-run, so the lockfile still records the older ref — and lockfile enforcement rejects a workflow whose refs it cannot resolve, before any job starts. Regenerated with `gh actions-lock` (v0.1.6) rather than hand-edited. Every entry needs a resolved commit SHA plus owner_id and repo_id, and hand-authoring those is exactly how the sibling defect happened — a caller entry written into the `dependencies:` map instead of `workflows:`, which made the whole file unparseable and killed every workflow in the repo at once. Verified before pushing, three ways: the hand-authored reusable-caller entries survive the regeneration (checked by count, because the tool does not generate them and deleting them would re-break the repo); every key under `dependencies:` still matches owner/repo@ref; and `gh actions-lock --no-fix` passes its own verification afterwards. One of 26 repos of 52 carrying a lockfile — half the estate — found by scanning after metadatastician/688-attack-hub#18.

Regenerate the actions lockfile for the pinned commit.

.github/workflows/actions.lock records v0.2.0, but the pinned commit is v0.3.0. Lockfile enforcement can reject this workflow before the job starts. This is a workflow availability and lockfile-drift issue, not a data-integrity issue.

Run gh actions-lock instead of editing the generated file. Add # v0.3.0 to this pin to match the repository’s existing SHA-pin comments, or use the commit recorded for v0.2.0.

lockfile using gh actions-lock so the entry for hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action
matches the pinned commit’s version, v0.3.0; retain the existing SHA pin and add
the repository-standard # v0.3.0 comment, or instead pin the commit recorded for
v0.2.0.
