🔒 Security concerns found: The PR pins actions/checkout to a commit commented as # v7. The official actions/checkout action does not have a v7 release (the current major version is v4). Using a non-existent or potentially compromised major version of a privileged action that handles repository checkout and GITHUB_TOKEN introduces critical supply-chain risk.

🚨🔒 Security
The workflow updates actions/checkout to commit 9c091bb21b7c1c1d1991bb908d89e4e9dddfe3e0 with the comment # v7. The official actions/checkout action has no v7 release; the current major version is v4. Using a non-existent or unverified major version of a core privileged action that checks out repository source code and handles the GITHUB_TOKEN exposes the build pipeline to severe supply chain compromise, including potential exfiltration of secrets or source code.
💡 Suggestion: Reject this update. Restore the verified pinned SHA for the latest official v4 release (11bd71901bbe5b1630ceea73d27597364c9af683 for v4.2.2) or another officially documented release, confirming the SHA against the actions/checkout GitHub repository.

The comment # v7 attached to the new actions/checkout SHA is misleading because it mismatches the official release versioning of the action. A mismatched version comment makes future dependency auditing, security scanning, and Renovate automation unreliable.
💡 Suggestion: If updating is required, ensure the comment accurately reflects the verified major or full semantic version of the pinned commit hash (for example, # v4.2.2).
