ci: build on GitHub runners, dual-arch, via EduIDE/.github@v1 - #125
Conversation
Repoints the three image builds at the org-owned reusable workflow and collapses three near-identical 18-line jobs into one matrix (107 -> 62 lines). Why this matters beyond tidiness: - Drops the dependency on ls1intum/.github@feature/split-build-workflow-modes, an unmerged PR branch in another organisation. If that branch is deleted, every image build here breaks. - operator, service and conversion-webhook are now built for both linux/amd64 and linux/arm64 on every event, including pull requests. Previously arm64 was skipped for PRs, so a PR image could not be scheduled onto an arm64 node. - fail-fast: false, so one component failing no longer cancels the other two. Removes verify-cache.yml and certs/squid-proxy-ca.crt. That workflow only probed cluster-internal services (apt-cacher-ng, verdaccio, squid and the two registry mirrors, all .svc.cluster.local) which are unreachable from GitHub-hosted runners, and the CA certificate existed solely for it.

GitHub Actions pull_request fork Dependabot GITHUB_TOKEN read-only permissions reusable workflow cannot elevate permissions
💡 Result:
GitHub Actions workflows triggered by pull requests from forks—including those opened by Dependabot—are intentionally restricted to a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN and have no access to secrets by design [1][2][3][4]. This is a security feature to prevent untrusted code in a pull request from accessing sensitive environment secrets or gaining unauthorized write access to the repository [5][6][4]. These restrictions apply regardless of any permissions explicitly defined in your workflow file [7][8]. Because this behavior is enforced by the GitHub platform at the event-trigger level, a reusable workflow cannot "elevate" or override these default read-only permissions when the trigger is a pull request from a fork [3][6][4]. To perform tasks that require write permissions or secrets for fork-based pull requests, you must use alternative, secure patterns: 1. Workflow Run Trigger: Use a two-stage process. The first workflow (triggered by pull_request) performs untrusted tasks (like building or testing) and produces artifacts. A second workflow, triggered by workflow_run, executes in the base repository's context with access to secrets and a read-write GITHUB_TOKEN to perform the privileged operations (such as commenting or labeling) [3][4]. 2. pull_request_target Trigger: This trigger runs the workflow from the base repository's default branch, allowing access to secrets and a write-capable token [5][4]. IMPORTANT: This is a high-risk approach [3][4]. You must never check out or execute code from the fork (e.g., using actions/checkout without careful configuration) when using this trigger, as doing so would allow malicious code to hijack the elevated permissions [5][6][4]. 3. Dependabot-Specific Secrets: If your workflow is specifically for Dependabot, note that Dependabot-triggered workflows have access to Dependabot-specific secrets [1][2]. If you need standard repository secrets, ensure they are also defined as Dependabot secrets [1]. In summary, do not attempt to bypass these restrictions in a fork-based pull_request workflow, as the platform will always enforce the read-only limitation [7][8]. Instead, decouple your automation into trusted and untrusted components [3][4].

Route untrusted pull requests to a build-only workflow.
Fork and Dependabot pull requests receive read-only GITHUB_TOKEN permissions. The called workflow declares packages: write but unconditionally pushes architecture digests and the manifest. These jobs can fail during publication instead of validating the pull request.
