ci: migrate scan-plugins.yml to Workload Identity Federation auth#248
Merged
Conversation
Replaces the static ANTHROPIC_API_KEY repo secret with Workload Identity Federation: the scan-plugins shared action mints a GitHub OIDC token (id-token: write) and the claude CLI exchanges it for a short-lived bearer. The federation rule is bound to this repository (repository_id-pinned). Depends on anthropics/claude-plugins-community#34 (adds the WIF inputs to the shared action). Pinned to that PR's head SHA; will re-pin to a main-branch SHA once #34 merges. Drops the 'Require ANTHROPIC_API_KEY' fail-closed guard — the WIF inputs are literal in this file, so the action's skip-if-no-auth path can't trigger. Updates the prompt-injection security comment to reflect the short-lived bearer model.
claude-plugins-community#34 merged at e85f0d65b4fc87f07862e1dcdc467950514414ec — re-pinning from the PR head SHA to the squash-merge commit on main so the pin survives any future branch GC.

WIF-migration ✅ — scan-plugins.yml: add id-token: write + switch the scan-plugins action from the ANTHROPIC_API_KEY secret to Workload Identity Federation (GitHub OIDC + literal federation IDs), dropping the now-moot fail-closed API-key guard. Same note as cpo#1991: pinned to the unmerged claude-plugins-community#34 SHA with a re-pin-after-merge TODO. LGTM.
