name: CodeQL

# FIX (Yachay, empire-reliability 2026-06-01): two stacked root causes made this fail.
#  (1) The caller used the org reusable-codeql workflow with its default language
#      'javascript-typescript'. killinchu is a docs/config-only repo (CITATION.cff,
#      LICENSE, README.md) with no JS/TS source, so CodeQL found nothing to analyse.
#  (2) Even after switching to the `actions` language, the reusable workflow always
#      *uploads* SARIF to GitHub code scanning. killinchu is a PRIVATE repo without
#      GitHub Advanced Security / Code Security, so the upload returned a configuration
#      error ("Code Security must be enabled for this repository to use code scanning").
#
# Root-cause fix: run CodeQL self-contained (matching the working public `terra`
# pattern) over the `actions` language, but with `upload: false`. The analysis still
# runs and validates the workflow files; we simply do not push SARIF to a code-scanning
# backend that this private repo tier does not provide. If GHAS is later enabled on
# killinchu, flip `upload` back to the default to surface results in the Security tab.
