- description
- Remediate GitHub Actions action findings identified by the action-audit skill. Applies the appropriate fix per action type — `@main` ref for internal `bitwarden/` actions, full SHA with inline version comment for external actions, or full replacement — across selected repos and creates draft PRs. Run the action-audit skill first to identify findings before using this skill.
<example> User: Go ahead and fix the unpinned actions from the audit Action: Trigger action-remediate to apply fixes and create PRs </example>
<example> User: Replace tj-actions/changed-files with the safe version across those repos Action: Trigger action-remediate to swap the action and create PRs </example>

## Rules
- **No mutating API calls without confirmation.** `gh api` GET requests are allowed freely. Any call using `-X POST`, `-X PUT`, `-X PATCH`, or `-X DELETE` must be shown to the user and approved before execution.
- **Never force-push, delete branches, or delete repositories.**
- **Only modify files under `.github/`.** Do not touch application code, scripts, or configuration outside of workflow files.
- **Show a diff and get confirmation before handing off for commit.**
- **All PRs must be created as drafts.**
- **Flag uncertainty.** If a finding is ambiguous or a fix could break a workflow, stop and ask rather than guessing.
## Step 1: Confirm Audit Findings
Before proceeding, verify that the user has audit findings to act on. These should come from a prior run of the `action-audit` skill. Confirm:
- Which repos to remediate (all, a subset, or specific ones)
- The remediation approach:
- **pin to main** — for internal `bitwarden/` actions: change the ref to `@main`
- **pin update** — for external actions: update to a verified 40-character SHA with an inline version comment
- **replace** — swap to a different action entirely
- The target SHA, replacement action, or confirmation that `@main` is the fix
If any of this is unclear, ask the user before continuing.
## Step 2: Apply Fixes Per Repo
For each selected repo:
1. Ask the user for the base directory where their repos are cloned (if not already known). Check if a local clone exists at `<base-dir>/<repo>`. If not, inform the user and skip that repo.
2. Create a fix branch:
```bash
git checkout -b fix/action-remediation-<action-name-slug>
```
3. Apply the fix to each affected file based on the remediation approach:
- **Pin to main (internal `bitwarden/` actions):** Replace the ref with `@main` — e.g., `uses: bitwarden/gh-actions/action@v1` → `uses: bitwarden/gh-actions/action@main`. No SHA resolution needed.
- **Pin update (external actions):** Replace the `uses:` line with `uses: <action>@<sha> # <original-ref>`
- **Replace:** Before applying, verify the replacement action is on Bitwarden's approved actions list in `bitwarden/workflow-linter`. Then swap `uses: <old-action>@<ref>` with `uses: <new-action>@<sha> # <tag>`
4. Show a `git diff` of changes in this repo and get confirmation before proceeding.
## Step 3: Commit, Push, and Create PRs
Do not run the staging, commit, or push commands yourself. For each repo, present the block below for the user to run manually as a suggestion:
```bash
git add .github/
git commit -m "Remediate <action-name> action usage"
git push -u origin fix/action-remediation-<action-name-slug>
```
Once the user confirms the push, create the draft PR:
```bash
gh pr create \
--title "Remediate <action-name> action usage" \
--body "$(cat <<'EOF'
## Summary
Remediates usage of `<action-name>` across this repository.
**Action taken:** <pin updated to `<sha>` / replaced with `<new-action>`>
**Reason:** <compromised action / deprecated action / unpinned reference>
EOF
)" \
--draft
```
## Step 4: Final Summary
Output a summary of all actions taken:
| Repo | Files Changed | PR Created | Notes |
| ---- | ------------- | ---------- | ----- |
| ... | ... | ... | ... |
Remind the user that code search results may have a lag and to verify no repos were missed by checking manually if this is a security incident.
