Summary

PR #101 proved (within ~1h of #100 landing) that the versions: ["4.38.1"] ignore rule does not stop dependabot from re-raising the blocked bump: it swapped b96794f0 (v4.38.0 commit, green) for 1c5b675 (the v4.38.1 commit, estate-blocked) in SHA form today, while copying my inline "4.38.1 blocked" warning comment verbatim. 1c5b675 fails workflow startup on hypatia and rsr-template proven — merging #101 would have re-broken CodeQL + Hypatia tonight.

#101 is closed with a warning comment. This PR upgrades the defence to an unconditional hold on github/codeql-action (no versions key = all updates ignored) until upstream clears 4.38.1 or a newer release is verified green. Comment documents why the versions-scoped rule failed so nobody "tidies" it back.

Follow-ups outside this PR

  • Same hold needed in the standards canonical dependabot config so other estate repos don't take the SHA-form re-bump either — part of the estate rollback batch.
  • Estate alert: any repo whose dependabot merged the actions group since ~Sep-15 may already have the broken ref (vexometer + hypatia + rsr-template confirmed red).

…ailed, PR #101)

PR #101 proved within ~1h of #100 landing that dependabot re-raises the
blocked 4.38.1 bump in SHA form even with versions: ["4.38.1"] ignored -
it swapped b96794f0 (v4.38.0 commit) for 1c5b675 (v4.38.1 commit) while
copying the inline warning comment verbatim. #101 closed unmerged. This
switches to an unconditional hold on the dependency until upstream clears
4.38.1 or a new release is verified green.
