What

hyperpolymath/standards moved to metadatastician/standards (repo_id 1116521501). A reusable uses: does not follow GitHub's redirect, so a caller of the former name fails at startup whatever its SHA. scripts/fix-stale-reusable-pin.sh only knew the former name, which caused two defects:

  1. Current-name callers were invisible. A caller already moved to metadatastician/standards/...@<dead SHA> was never fixed: the scan regex and the lookup used only the owners the table names.
  2. Former-name callers got a misleading fix. A caller at hyperpolymath/standards/...@<dead SHA> had its SHA bumped but kept the dead name. It was reported FIXED and still failed at startup. propagate-sha-bump.sh already refuses this kind of SHA-only bump for the source repository.

How

  • New scripts/lib/moved-repositories.tsv (former, current, repo_id, reason). It mirrors hypatia's Hypatia.Rules.MovedRepositories (WF028), so detection and repair carry the same facts.
  • Validation: bad names, a bad id, a self-move or a chain all exit 2 before anything changes.
  • Matching: table rows and callers are compared case-folded under the current name, so a row written with either name covers callers written with either. The candidate scan covers both owners.
  • Rewrite: a former-name caller is rewritten to the current name together with its replacement SHA, and FIXED names the move.
  • Lock: the renamed caller's actions.lock entry is not edited, because its record carries the former owner_id. The run ends 3 and asks for gh actions-lock. A current-name caller gets the ordinary edge and record surgery.
  • Performance: the pins table is read into memory once instead of once per lookup.
  • Out of scope: a former-name caller at a SHA the table does not name. No row says where to move it, so it is left alone; hypatia WF028 reports it. A rename-only fixer would be a separate change.

Tests

The existing stale-pin fixtures spell standards by its former name and test the SHA and lock mechanics, which don't depend on the name. They now run with no moves recorded (MOVED_TABLE set to an empty table).

Thirteen new sp-moved* contracts use the shipped table:

  • planted defect: a former-name caller is renamed and its SHA moved;
  • the lock is left alone and the run exits 3;
  • a second run is byte-identical with exit 0;
  • a current-name caller gets its SHA moved and lock surgery;
  • mixed-case former name, untabled SHA, another repository of the new owner;
  • a current-name dead pin behind an alias is UNSUPPORTED;
  • four invalid moved tables.

Ten of the thirteen fail against the previous fixer. The other three are non-defect and idempotency checks.

fix-workflow-pins: 337 passed, 0 failed      (main: 324)
fix-workflow-resources: 93 passed, 0 failed
shellcheck 0.9.0: no new findings (one pre-existing SC1091 info)

Beyond this repo

  • Roughly 368 estate callers still write hyperpolymath/standards. This change fixes only those at a SHA the table names. The rest need a rename-only migration, tracked with hypatia WF028.
  • Hypatia's PIN-003 denylist mirrors stale-reusable-pins.tsv. Its matching should canonicalise the same way.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Pin maintenance now recognizes repository renames when checking workflow references, including entries that use either the former or current repository name.
    • References using a former name are updated to the current name and replacement revision. If a lock file still refers to the former name, it is left unchanged and the tool reports the issue with a distinct exit status.
    • Unlisted pins and unrelated repositories remain unchanged. Invalid, unreadable, chained, or self-referential rename tables are rejected.

standards moved from hyperpolymath/standards to metadatastician/standards
(repo_id 1116521501). A reusable `uses:` does not follow GitHub's
redirect, so a former-name caller fails at startup whatever its SHA.
The fixer knew only the former name, so it had two defects:

- A caller already re-pointed to metadatastician/standards at a dead
  SHA was invisible: the scan regex and lookup used only the table's
  owners.
- A former-name caller at a dead SHA had its SHA bumped but kept the
  dead name, so it was reported FIXED and still failed at startup.

scripts/lib/moved-repositories.tsv records the move (former, current,
repo_id); it mirrors hypatia's Hypatia.Rules.MovedRepositories (WF028).

Table rows and callers are now compared under the current name, and
the scan covers both owners. A former-name caller is rewritten to the
current name along with its replacement SHA.

Its lock entry carries the former owner_id, so it is left for
`gh actions-lock` and the run ends 3. A malformed, chained or
self-moving moved table exits 2 before anything changes.

The table is now read once into memory rather than once per lookup.

The existing stale-pin fixtures run with no moves recorded: they test
the SHA and lock mechanics, which do not depend on the name. Thirteen
new contracts (sp-moved*) use the shipped table; ten of them fail
against the previous fixer.

Walkthrough

The script now validates moved-repository mappings, matches pin entries by canonical repository path, and rewrites caller paths and SHAs. When a moved caller has an actions.lock, the script leaves the lock unchanged and exits 3. Tests cover these cases and invalid mappings.

Changes: Moved Repository Pin Handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validate mappings and load canonical pin rows
scripts/fix-stale-reusable-pin.sh, scripts/tests/fix-workflow-pins.sh
The script validates the moved-repository table and loads pin rows with canonical paths and reasons. The test setup uses an empty table by default.
Match callers by canonical path
scripts/fix-stale-reusable-pin.sh
Replacement lookup canonicalizes caller paths. Conflict tracking uses the canonical repository name and stale SHA.
Rewrite callers and handle moved-repository locks
scripts/fix-stale-reusable-pin.sh, scripts/tests/fix-workflow-pins.sh
The script can rewrite a caller’s repository name and SHA. If a moved caller has an actions.lock, it leaves the lock unchanged and exits 3. Tests cover moved and current names, unmatched pins, and invalid mappings.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Two checks are red. Neither comes from this PR's diff, which touches only scripts/fix-stale-reusable-pin.sh, its table, a new scripts/lib/moved-repositories.tsv and the shell tests.

  • GSBot build, tests and dependency security fails at its cargo audit step on a new advisory, RUSTSEC-2026-0459 (C SQLite CVE-2026-119375). It reaches bots/gsbot through libsqlite3-sys 0.30.1 ← sqlx-sqlite 0.8.6. GSBot was green on main (8906f47) only because that run predates the advisory. The fix needs libsqlite3-sys >= 0.39, and no released sqlx allows that: 0.8.6 pins 0.30, and the newest, 0.9.0, requires >=0.30.1, <0.38.0 (checked on crates.io). So no upgrade exists to port. The options are a GSBot decision: drop the sqlite feature, take a dated advisory exception under the ratchet, or wait for an sqlx that lifts the cap.
  • echidnabot pinned to hyperpolymath/echidnabot is also red on main (run 42574359219).

Neither is re-run here: a re-run cannot change either result.
