Overall Counts

Interpretation note: the stable signal in this wave is dominated by SEC324. That rule is intentionally positioned as a supply-chain hardening control for mutable third-party action refs, not as a blanket claim that the affected repositories are critically compromised.
Stable Hits
Most stable hits in this wave are SEC324 supply-chain hardening findings on third-party actions pinned to tags or versions instead of immutable full SHAs.

Recommended Next Step
Keep this package as supporting sidecar evidence only. The next expansion batches should return to MCP, Cursor Plugin, and skill surfaces rather than extending GitHub Actions further right now.
