The stable-install smoke body is intentionally workflow_call-only so its read-only continuity caller and draft-capable release caller can supply different explicit token budgets. Treat that exact no-override shape as an auditable permission boundary while continuing to reject independent triggers and job permission overrides.
Validation: 41 workflow-trust tests, repository workflow audit, focused install-smoke contract tests, Python compilation and diff checks pass.

Replace the remaining Node 20 action pins before GitHub removes that runtime, and make the reviewed Node 24 pins a workflow trust invariant.

Retire the unused self-hosted live qualification workflow and reject future secret- or write-capable jobs on persistent or dynamically selected runners. Keep live Patrol qualification as a disposable lab operation.

Reject job-level permission expansion and unsafe checkout selection in the closed-PR capacity workflow, and report cancellation requests separately from runs that completed during the API race.
Change-source: pulse-maintainer
Cancel queued and running validation workflows for a closed pull request head so obsolete matrices cannot hold the hosted-runner limit and delay required checks. Keep the privileged close hook bound to reviewed default-branch code and cover reopen, branch-reuse, identity, and API-race boundaries.

Recognize bare sequence entries and every valid block scalar header across executable action inputs, run scripts, and step environment boundaries.
