fix: resolve all remaining CodeQL alerts and pin action SHAs

jovanSAPFIONEER · jovanSAPFIONEER · commit 34e25e15b5ee · 2026-02-19T15:19:29.000+01:00
- ci.yml, codeql.yml, dependabot-auto-merge.yml: pin all actions to full
  commit SHA (Pinned-Dependencies fix)
- codeql.yml: add permissions: read-all at workflow level (Token-Permissions fix)
- locked-blackboard.ts: remove final existsSync+readFileSync TOCTOU race;
  read directly and handle ENOENT; remove unused statSync import
- security.ts: remove unused existsSync and writeFileSync imports
- check_permission.py: remove always-true word_count&gt;0 ternary (line 142, 156)
- blackboard.py, swarm_guard.py, validate_token.py: add comments to bare
  empty-except blocks (py/empty-except fix)

+## [3.2.9] - 2026-02-19
+
+### Fixed
+- **Pinned-Dependencies** -- all GitHub Actions in `ci.yml`, `codeql.yml`, and `dependabot-auto-merge.yml` pinned to full commit SHA (Scorecard supply-chain requirement)
+- **Token-Permissions** -- added `permissions: read-all` at workflow level in `codeql.yml`
+- **Remaining TOCTOU** -- removed final `existsSync` + `readFileSync` race in `locked-blackboard.ts`; now reads directly and handles `ENOENT`
+- **Unused imports** -- removed `existsSync`/`writeFileSync` from `security.ts` and `statSync` from `locked-blackboard.ts`
+- **py/redundant-comparison** -- removed always-true `word_count > 0` ternary in `check_permission.py` (guaranteed `>= 3` by earlier guard)
+- **py/empty-except** -- added explanatory comments to all bare `pass` except blocks in `blackboard.py`, `swarm_guard.py`, and `validate_token.py`
+
 ## [3.2.8] - 2026-02-19
