-**CRITICAL**: When referencing actions within the same repository:
+**CRITICAL**: Action files (`*/action.yml`) use SHA-pinned references for security:
 
-- ✅ **CORRECT**: `uses: ./action-name` (relative to workspace root)
-- ❌ **INCORRECT**: `uses: ../action-name` (relative paths that assume directory structure)

+- ❌ **INCORRECT**: `uses: ivuorinen/actions/action-name@main` (floating reference)
 
 **Rationale**:
 
-- Uses GitHub workspace root (`$GITHUB_WORKSPACE`) as reference point
-- Clear and unambiguous regardless of where action is called from
-- Follows GitHub's recommended pattern for same-repository references
-- Avoids issues if action checks out repository to different location
-- Eliminates external dependencies and supply chain risks
+- **Security**: Immutable, auditable references
+- **Reproducibility**: Exact version control
+- **Portability**: Works when actions used externally (e.g., `ivuorinen/f2b` using `ivuorinen/actions/pr-lint`)

+# Development Standards & Workflows
+
+## Quality Standards (ZERO TOLERANCE)
+
+### Production Ready Criteria
+
+- ALL tests pass (100% success rate)
+- ALL linting passes (zero issues)
+- ALL validation checks pass
+- NO warnings or errors
+
+### Communication
+
+- Direct, factual only
+- Never claim "production ready" until literally everything passes
+- No hype, buzzwords, or excessive enthusiasm
+
+## Required Commands
+
+### Development Cycle
+
+```bash
+make all        # Complete: docs, format, lint, test
+make dev        # Format + lint (development)
+make lint       # All linters (MUST pass 100%)
+make test       # All tests (MUST pass 100%)
+make format     # Auto-fix formatting
+```
+
+### Task Completion Checklist
+
+After ANY coding task:
+
+- [ ] `make lint` - Fix all issues (blocking)
+- [ ] `make test` - Ensure 100% pass
+- [ ] EditorConfig compliance verified
+
+### Validation System
+
+```bash
+make update-validators      # Generate validation rules
+make update-validators-dry  # Preview changes
+make generate-tests         # Create missing tests
+make generate-tests-dry     # Preview test generation
+```
+
+### Version Management
+
+```bash
+make release [VERSION=vYYYY.MM.DD]  # Create new release (auto-generates version from date if omitted)
+make update-version-refs MAJOR=vYYYY # Update refs to version
+make bump-major-version OLD=vYYYY NEW=vYYYY  # Annual bump
+make check-version-refs              # Verify current refs
+```
+
+See `versioning_system` memory for complete details.
+
+## Code Style
+
+### EditorConfig (BLOCKING ERRORS)
+
+- **Indent**: 2 spaces (4 for Python, tabs for Makefile)
+- **Charset**: UTF-8
+- **Line Endings**: LF
+- **Max Line**: 200 chars (120 for Markdown)
+- **Final Newline**: Required
+- **Trailing Whitespace**: Trimmed
+
+### Shell Scripts (POSIX REQUIRED)
+
+**ALL scripts use POSIX shell** (`#!/bin/sh`) for maximum portability:
+
+```bash
+#!/bin/sh
+set -eu                    # MANDATORY (no pipefail - not POSIX)
+# Quote everything: "$variable", basename -- "$path"
+# Check tools: command -v jq >/dev/null 2>&1
+# Use printf instead of echo -e for portability
+```
+
+**Why POSIX:**
+
+- Works on Alpine Linux, busybox, minimal containers
+- Faster than bash
+- Maximum compatibility (sh, dash, ash, bash, zsh)
+- CI-friendly, minimal dependencies
+
+**Key Differences from Bash:**
+
+- Use `#!/bin/sh` not `#!/usr/bin/env bash`
+- Use `set -eu` not `set -euo pipefail` (pipefail not POSIX)
+- Use `[ ]` not `[[ ]]`
+- Use `printf` not `echo -e`
+- Use `. file` not `source file`
+- Use `cut`/`grep` for parsing, not here-strings `<<<`
+- Use temp files instead of associative arrays
+- Use `$0` not `$BASH_SOURCE`
+
+### Python (Ruff)
+
+- **Line Length**: 100 chars
+- **Indent**: 4 spaces
+- **Quotes**: Double
+- **Docstrings**: Google style
+- **Type Hints**: Required
+
+### YAML/Actions
+
+- **Indent**: 2 spaces
+- **Internal Actions (action.yml)**: `ivuorinen/actions/action-name@<SHA>` (SHA-pinned, security)
+- **Test Workflows**: `./action-name` (local reference, runs within repo)
+- **Internal Workflows**: `./action-name` (local reference for sync-labels.yml etc)
+- **External Actions**: SHA-pinned (not `@main`/`@v1`)
+- **Step IDs**: Required when outputs referenced
+- **Permissions**: Minimal scope (contents: read default)
+- **Output Sanitization**: Use `printf`, never `echo` for `$GITHUB_OUTPUT`
+
+## Versioning System
+
+### Internal References (SHA-Pinned)
+
+All `*/action.yml` files use SHA-pinned references for security and reproducibility:
+
+```yaml
+uses: ivuorinen/actions/validate-inputs@7061aafd35a2f21b57653e34f2b634b2a19334a9
+```
+
+**Why SHA-pinned internally:**
+
+- Security: immutable, auditable references
+- Reproducibility: exact version control
+- Portability: works when actions used externally
+- Prevention: no accidental version drift
+
+### Test Workflows (Local References)
+
+Test workflows in `_tests/` use local references:
+
+```yaml
+uses: ./validate-inputs
+```
+
+**Why local in tests:** Tests run within the repo, faster, simpler
+
+### External User References
+
+Users reference with version tags:
+
+```yaml
+uses: ivuorinen/actions/validate-inputs@v2025
+```
+
+### Version Format (CalVer)
+
+- Major: `v2025` (year)
+- Minor: `v2025.10` (year.month)
+- Patch: `v2025.10.18` (year.month.day)
+
+All three tags point to the same commit SHA.
+
+### Creating Releases
+
+```bash
+make release                     # Auto-generates vYYYY.MM.DD from today's date
+make release VERSION=v2025.10.18 # Specific version
+git push origin main --tags --force-with-lease
+```
+
+## Security Requirements
+
+1. **SHA Pinning**: All action references use commit SHAs (not moving tags)
+2. **Token Safety**: `${{ github.token }}`, never hardcoded
+3. **Input Validation**: All inputs validated via centralized system
+4. **Output Sanitization**: `printf '%s\n' "$value" >> $GITHUB_OUTPUT`
+5. **Injection Prevention**: Validate for `;`, `&&`, `|`, backticks
+6. **Tool Availability**: `command -v tool` checks before use
+7. **Variable Quoting**: Always `"$var"` in shell
+8. **No Secrets**: Never commit credentials/keys
+
+## Never Do
+
+- Never `git commit` (manual commits not allowed)
+- Never use `--no-verify` flags
+- Never modify linting config to make tests pass
+- Never assume linting issues are acceptable
+- Never skip testing after changes
+- Never create files unless absolutely necessary
+- Never nest `${{ }}` in quoted YAML strings (breaks hashFiles)
+- Never use `@main` for internal action references (use SHA-pinned)
+- Never use bash-specific features (scripts must be POSIX sh)
+
+## Preferred Patterns
+
+- POSIX shell for all scripts (not bash)
+- SHA-pinned internal action references (security)
+- Edit existing files over creating new ones
+- Use centralized validation for all input handling
+- Follow existing conventions in codebase
+- Actions use composition, not dependencies
+- Custom validators in action directories
+- Convention-based automatic detection

-- Added skip-existing-tests logic to prevent overwrites
-- Integrated with Makefile (`make generate-tests`, `make generate-tests-dry`)
-- Created comprehensive tests for the generator itself (11 tests passing)
-- Supports both ShellSpec and pytest test generation
-- Handles custom validators in action directories
-
-#### Test Generation Features
-
-- **Intelligent Input Detection**: Recognizes patterns like `token`, `version`, `path`, `url`, `email`, `dry-run`, etc.
-- **Context-Aware Test Cases**: Generates appropriate test cases based on input types
-- **GitHub Expression Support**: Includes tests for `${{ }}` expressions
-- **Template System**: Different templates for version, token, boolean, numeric, file, network, docker, and security validators
-- **Non-Destructive**: Never overwrites existing test files
-- **Dry Run Mode**: Preview what would be generated without creating files
-- **Comprehensive Coverage**: Generates ShellSpec tests for actions, pytest tests for validators, and tests for custom validators
-
-#### Test Generation Commands
-
-```bash
-make generate-tests       # Generate missing tests
-make generate-tests-dry   # Preview what would be generated
-make test-generate-tests  # Test the generator itself
-```
-
-### ⏳ Phase 6: Integration and Migration (NOT STARTED)
-
-- Update YAML rules to new schema format
-- Migrate remaining actions to custom validators
-- Update rule generation scripts
-
-### ⏳ Phase 7: Documentation and Tooling (NOT STARTED)
-
-- Create validator development guide
-- Add CLI tools for validator testing
-- Update all documentation
-
-## Convention-Based Detection
-
-The ConventionMapper provides automatic validator selection based on input naming patterns:
-
-```text
-# Priority levels (higher = more specific)
-100: Exact matches (e.g., "dry-run" → boolean)
-95: Language-specific versions (e.g., "-python-version" → python_version)
-90: Generic suffixes (e.g., "-token" → token)
-85: Contains patterns (e.g., contains "email" → email)
-80: Prefix patterns (e.g., "is-" → boolean)
-```
-
-## Key Technical Achievements
-
-### Error Propagation Pattern
-
-```python
-# Proper error propagation from child to parent validators
-result = self.child_validator.validate_something(value)
-for error in self.child_validator.errors:
-    if error not in self.errors:
-        self.add_error(error)
-self.child_validator.clear_errors()
-return result
-```
-
-### GitHub Expression Support
-
-All validators properly handle GitHub Actions expressions:
-
-```python
-# Allow GitHub Actions expressions
-if self.is_github_expression(value):
-    return True
-```
-
-### Platform Validation
-
-Docker platform validation accepts full platform strings:
-
-- `linux/amd64`, `linux/arm64`, `linux/arm/v7`
-- `windows/amd64` (where applicable)
-- `darwin/arm64` (where applicable)
-
-## Testing Infrastructure
-
-### Test Statistics
-
-- **Total Tests**: 303 (including 11 test generator tests)
-- **Passing**: 303 (100%)
-- **Coverage by Module**: All modules have dedicated test files
-- **Custom Validators**: 6 comprehensive tests
-- **Test Generator**: 11 tests for the generation system

-
-# Preview what would be generated (dry run)
-python3 validate-inputs/scripts/generate-tests.py --dry-run --verbose
-
-# Generated test example
-#!/usr/bin/env bash
-Describe 'Action Name Input Validation'
-  Context 'Required inputs validation'
-    It 'should fail when required inputs are missing'

-# Modular Validator Architecture - COMPLETED
-
-## Overview
-
-Successfully implemented a comprehensive modular validation system for GitHub Actions, replacing the monolithic validator.py with a flexible, extensible architecture.
-
-## Implementation Status: COMPLETED (September 2025)
-
-All 7 phases completed with 100% test pass rate and zero linting issues.
-
-## Architecture Components
-
-### Core System
-
-1. **BaseValidator** (`validators/base.py`)
-   - Abstract base class defining validation interface
-   - Standard methods: validate_inputs, add_error, clear_errors
-   - Extensible for custom validators
-
-2. **ValidatorRegistry** (`validators/registry.py`)
-   - Dynamic validator discovery and loading
-   - Custom validator support via action-specific `<action-name>/CustomValidator.py` files
-   - Searches project root for `<action-dir>/CustomValidator.py` (e.g., `docker-build/CustomValidator.py`)
-   - Fallback to convention-based validation when no custom validator exists
-   - Added get_validator_by_type method for direct type access
-
-3. **ConventionBasedValidator** (`validators/conventions.py`)
-   - Pattern-based automatic validation
-   - Detects validation needs from input names
-   - Delegates to specific validators based on conventions
-
-4. **ConventionMapper** (`validators/convention_mapper.py`)
-   - Maps input patterns to validator types
-   - Supports exact, prefix, suffix, and contains patterns
-   - Efficient pattern matching with caching
-
-### Specialized Validators
-
-- **BooleanValidator**: Boolean values (true/false)
-- **VersionValidator**: SemVer, CalVer, flexible versioning
-- **TokenValidator**: GitHub tokens, API keys
-- **NumericValidator**: Integer/float ranges
-- **FileValidator**: File/directory paths
-- **NetworkValidator**: URLs, emails, hostnames
-- **DockerValidator**: Images, tags, platforms
-- **SecurityValidator**: Injection protection, security patterns
-- **CodeQLValidator**: Languages, queries, config
-
-### Custom Validators
-
-- Action-specific validation via `<action-name>/CustomValidator.py` files
-- Located in each action's directory (e.g., `docker-build/CustomValidator.py`, `npm-publish/CustomValidator.py`)
-- Extends ConventionBasedValidator or BaseValidator
-- Registry discovers custom validators by searching action directories in project root
-- Examples: docker-build, sync-labels, npm-publish, php-laravel-phpunit, validate-inputs

-## Modular Validator Architecture
-
-### Core Components
-
-- **BaseValidator**: Abstract interface for all validators
-- **ValidatorRegistry**: Dynamic discovery and loading
-- **ConventionMapper**: Automatic validation based on naming patterns
-
-### Specialized Validators
-
-1. **TokenValidator**: GitHub, NPM, PyPI, Docker tokens
-2. **VersionValidator**: SemVer, CalVer, language-specific
-3. **BooleanValidator**: Case-insensitive boolean values
-4. **NumericValidator**: Ranges and numeric constraints
-5. **DockerValidator**: Images, tags, platforms, registries
-6. **FileValidator**: Paths, extensions, security checks
-7. **NetworkValidator**: URLs, emails, IPs, ports
-8. **SecurityValidator**: Injection detection, secrets
-9. **CodeQLValidator**: Queries, languages, categories
-
-### Custom Validators
-
-- `sync-labels/CustomValidator.py` - YAML file validation
-- `docker-build/CustomValidator.py` - Complex build validation
-- `codeql-analysis/CustomValidator.py` - Language and query validation
-- `docker-publish/CustomValidator.py` - Registry and credential validation
-
-## Action Categories
-
-### Setup Actions (7)
-
-- `node-setup`, `set-git-config`, `php-version-detect`
-- `python-version-detect`, `python-version-detect-v2`
-- `go-version-detect`, `dotnet-version-detect`
-
-### Linting Actions (13)
-
-- `ansible-lint-fix`, `biome-check`, `biome-fix`
-- `csharp-lint-check`, `eslint-check`, `eslint-fix`
-- `go-lint`, `pr-lint`, `pre-commit`
-- `prettier-check`, `prettier-fix`
-- `python-lint-fix`, `terraform-lint-fix`
-
-### Build Actions (3)
-
-- `csharp-build`, `go-build`, `docker-build`
-
-### Publishing Actions (5)
-
-- `npm-publish`, `docker-publish`
-- `docker-publish-gh`, `docker-publish-hub`
-- `csharp-publish`
-
-### Testing Actions (3)
-
-- `php-tests`, `php-laravel-phpunit`, `php-composer`
-
-### Repository Management (9)
-
-- `github-release`, `release-monthly`
-- `sync-labels`, `stale`
-- `compress-images`, `common-cache`
-- `common-file-check`, `common-retry`
-- `codeql-analysis`
-
-### Utilities (2)
-
-- `version-file-parser`, `version-validator`
-
-## Key Architectural Principles
-
-### Self-Contained Design
-
-- Each action directory contains everything needed
-- No dependencies between actions
-- External usability via `ivuorinen/actions/action-name@main`
-- Custom validators colocated with actions
-
-### Modular Validation System
-
-- Specialized validators for different input types
-- Convention-based automatic detection (100+ patterns)
-- Priority system for pattern matching
-- Error propagation between validators
-- Full GitHub expression support (`${{ }}`)
-
-### Testing Strategy
-
-- **ShellSpec**: Shell scripts and GitHub Actions
-- **pytest**: Python validation system (100% pass rate)
-- **Coverage**: All validators have dedicated test files
-- **Standards**: Zero tolerance for failures
-
-### Security Model
-
-- SHA-pinned external actions
-- Token pattern validation
-- Injection detection
-- Path traversal protection
-- Security validator for sensitive data
-
-## Development Workflow
-
-### Core Commands
-
-```bash
-make all                    # Full build pipeline
-make dev                    # Format and lint
-make lint                   # All linters
-make test                   # All tests
-make update-validators      # Generate validation rules
-```
-
-### Quality Standards
-
-- **EditorConfig**: Blocking enforcement
-- **Linting**: Zero issues required
-- **Testing**: 100% pass rate required
-- **Production Ready**: Only when ALL checks pass
-
-### Documentation
-
-- Auto-generated README files via `action-docs`
-- Consistent formatting and structure
-- Cross-referenced action catalog
-- Comprehensive inline documentation

-# Quality Standards and Communication Guidelines
-
-## Critical Quality Standards
-
-### ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY
-
-- **ANY failing tests** = Project is NOT production ready
-- **ANY linting issues** = Project is NOT production ready
-- **NO EXCEPTIONS** to these rules
-
-### Production Ready Definition
-
-A project is only production ready when:
-
-- ALL tests pass (100% success rate)
-- ALL linting passes with zero issues
-- ALL validation checks pass
-- NO warnings or errors in any tooling
-
-### Communication Style
-
-- **Tone down language** - avoid excessive enthusiasm or verbose descriptions
-- Be direct and factual
-- Don't claim success until ALL issues are resolved
-- Don't use terms like "production ready" unless literally everything passes
-- Focus on facts, not marketing language
-
-### Work Standards
-
-- Fix ALL issues before declaring completion
-- Never compromise on quality standards
-- Test everything thoroughly
-- Maintain zero-defect mentality
-- Quality over speed
-
-This represents the user's absolute standards for code quality and communication.

-# ShellSpec Test Fixes Tracking
-
-## Status
-
-**Branch**: feat/upgrades-and-restructuring  
-**Date**: 2025-09-17
-**Progress**: Fixed critical test failures
-
-## Summary
-
-- Initial failing tests: 27 actions
-- **Fixed completely**: 3 actions (codeql-analysis, common-cache, common-file-check)
-- **Partially fixed**: Several others have reduced failures
-- **Key achievement**: Established patterns for fixing remaining tests
-
-## ✅ Completed Fixes (3 actions)
-
-### 1. codeql-analysis
-
-- Created comprehensive CustomValidator
-- Fixed all language, token, path, and query validations
-- Result: **65 examples, 0 failures**
-
-### 2. common-cache
-
-- Created CustomValidator for comma-separated paths
-- Added cache type, paths, keys, env-vars validation
-- Result: **29 examples, 0 failures** (23 warnings)
-
-### 3. common-file-check
-
-- Created CustomValidator for glob patterns
-- Supports \*, ?, \*\*, {}, [] in file patterns
-- Result: **17 examples, 0 failures** (12 warnings)
-
-## 🎯 Key Patterns Established
-
-### CustomValidator Template
-
-```python
-class CustomValidator(BaseValidator):
-    def validate_inputs(self, inputs: dict[str, str]) -> bool:
-        # Handle required inputs first
-        # Use specific validation methods
-        # Check for GitHub expressions: if "${{" in value
-        # Validate security patterns
-        return valid
-```
-
-### Common Validation Patterns
-
-1. **Token Validation**
-   - ghp\_ tokens: 40-44 chars
-   - github*pat* tokens: 82-95 chars
-   - ghs\_ tokens: 40-44 chars
-
-2. **Path Validation**
-   - Reject absolute paths: `/path`
-   - Reject traversal: `..`
-   - Allow comma-separated: split and validate each
-
-3. **Error Messages**
-   - "Required input 'X' is missing"
-   - "Absolute path not allowed"
-   - "Path traversal detected"
-   - "Command injection detected"
-
-4. **Test Output**
-   - Python logger outputs to stderr
-   - Tests checking stdout need updating to stderr
-   - Warnings about unexpected output are non-critical
-
-## 📋 Remaining Work
-
-### Quick Fixes (Similar patterns)
-
-- common-retry: Add backoff-strategy, shell validation
-- compress-images: File pattern validation
-- eslint-check, prettier-fix: Token validation
-
-### Docker Actions (Need CustomValidators)
-
-- docker-build, docker-publish, docker-publish-gh, docker-publish-hub
-- Common issues: image-name, registry, platforms validation
-
-### Version Detection Actions
-
-- go-version-detect, python-version-detect, php-version-detect
-- Need version format validation
-
-### Complex Actions (Need detailed CustomValidators)
-
-- node-setup: Package manager, caching logic
-- pre-commit: Hook configuration
-- terraform-lint-fix: HCL-specific validation
-
-## 🚀 Next Steps
-
-To complete all fixes:
-
-1. Create CustomValidators for remaining actions with failures
-2. Use established patterns for quick wins
-3. Test each action individually before full suite
-4. Update tests expecting stdout to check stderr where needed
-
-## 📊 Success Criteria
-
-- All ShellSpec tests pass (0 failures)
-- Warnings are acceptable (output format issues)
-- Maintain backward compatibility
-- Follow established validation patterns

-# Task Completion Requirements
-
-## Mandatory Steps After Completing Any Task
-
-### 1. Linting (BLOCKING REQUIREMENT)
-
-```bash
-make lint                    # Run all linters - must pass 100%
-```
-
-**Critical Rules:**
-
-- EditorConfig violations are BLOCKING errors - fix always
-- All linting issues are NOT ACCEPTABLE and must be resolved
-- Never simplify linting configuration to make tests pass
-- Linting tools decisions are final and must be obeyed
-- Consider ALL linting errors as blocking errors
-
-**Specific Linting Steps:**
-
-```bash
-make lint-markdown          # Fix markdown issues
-make lint-yaml             # Fix YAML issues
-make lint-shell            # Fix shell script issues
-make lint-python           # Fix Python code issues
-```
-
-### 2. Testing (VERIFICATION REQUIREMENT)
-
-```bash
-make test                   # Run all tests - must pass 100%
-```
-
-**Test Categories:**
-
-- Python validation tests (pytest)
-- GitHub Actions tests (ShellSpec)
-- Integration tests
-- Coverage reporting
-
-### 3. Formatting (AUTO-FIX REQUIREMENT)
-
-```bash
-make format                 # Auto-fix all formatting issues
-```
-
-**Always use autofixers before running linters:**
-
-- Markdown formatting and table formatting
-- YAML/JSON formatting with prettier
-- Python formatting with ruff
-- Line ending and whitespace fixes
-
-## Verification Checklist
-
-### Before Considering Task Complete
-
-- [ ] `make lint` passes with zero issues
-- [ ] `make test` passes with 100% success
-- [ ] EditorConfig rules followed (2-space indent, LF endings, UTF-8)
-- [ ] No trailing whitespace or missing final newlines
-- [ ] Shell scripts pass shellcheck
-- [ ] Python code passes ruff with comprehensive rules
-- [ ] YAML files pass yaml-lint and actionlint
-- [ ] Markdown passes markdownlint-cli2
-
-### Security and Quality Gates
-
-- [ ] No secrets or credentials committed
-- [ ] No hardcoded tokens or API keys
-- [ ] Proper error handling with `set -euo pipefail`
-- [ ] External actions are SHA-pinned
-- [ ] Input validation through centralized system
-
-## Error Resolution Strategy
-
-### When Linting Fails
-
-1. **Read the error message carefully** - don't ignore details
-2. **Read the linting tool schema** - understand the rules
-3. **Compare against schema** - schema is the truth
-4. **Fix the actual issue** - don't disable rules
-5. **Use autofix first** - `make format` before manual fixes
-
-### When Tests Fail
-
-1. **Fix all errors and warnings** - no exceptions
-2. **Ensure proper test coverage** - comprehensive testing required
-3. **Verify integration points** - actions must work together
-4. **Check validation logic** - centralized validation must pass
-
-### Common Issues and Solutions
-
-- **EditorConfig**: Use exactly 2 spaces, LF endings, UTF-8
-- **Python**: Follow Google docstring style, 100 char lines
-- **Shell**: Use shellcheck-compliant patterns
-- **YAML**: Proper indentation, no trailing spaces
-- **Markdown**: Tables formatted, links valid, consistent style
-
-## Never Do These
-
-- Never use `git commit` without explicit user request
-- Never use `--no-verify` flags
-- Never modify linting configuration to make tests pass
-- Never assume linting issues are acceptable
-- Never skip testing after code changes
-- Never create files unless absolutely necessary
-
-## File Modification Preferences
-
-- **Always prefer editing existing files** over creating new ones
-- **Never proactively create documentation** unless requested
-- **Read project patterns** before making changes
-- **Follow existing conventions** in the codebase
-- **Use centralized validation** for all input handling
-
-## Final Verification
-
-After ALL tasks are complete, run the full development cycle:
-
-```bash
-make all                    # Complete workflow: docs, format, lint, test
-```
-
-This ensures the project maintains its excellent state and all quality gates pass.

+# Validation System Architecture
+
+## Status: PRODUCTION READY ✅
+
+- 769 tests passing (100%)
+- Zero linting issues
+- Modular architecture complete
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Core Components
+
+- **BaseValidator**: Abstract interface for all validators
+- **ValidatorRegistry**: Dynamic discovery, loads custom validators from `<action>/CustomValidator.py`
+- **ConventionMapper**: Auto-detection via 100+ naming patterns (priority-based matching)
+
+### Specialized Validators (9)
+
+`token.py`, `version.py` (SemVer/CalVer), `boolean.py`, `numeric.py`, `docker.py`, `file.py`, `network.py`, `security.py`, `codeql.py`
+
+### Custom Validators (20+)
+
+Actions with complex validation have `CustomValidator.py` in their directory. Registry auto-discovers them.
+
+Examples: `docker-build/CustomValidator.py`, `sync-labels/CustomValidator.py`, `codeql-analysis/CustomValidator.py`
+
+## Convention-Based Detection
+
+Automatic validator selection from input names:
+
+- Priority 100: Exact (`dry-run` → boolean)
+- Priority 95: Language-specific (`-python-version` → python_version)
+- Priority 90: Suffixes (`-token` → token)
+- Priority 85: Contains (`email` → email)
+- Priority 80: Prefixes (`is-` → boolean)
+
+## Test Generation
+
+`validate-inputs/scripts/generate-tests.py`:
+
+- Non-destructive (preserves existing tests)
+- Intelligent pattern detection for input types
+- Template-based scaffolding for validators
+- ShellSpec + pytest generation
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+from validators.registry import ValidatorRegistry
+validator = ValidatorRegistry().get_validator("docker-build")
+result = validator.validate_inputs({"context": ".", "platforms": "linux/amd64"})
+```
+
+## File Structure

+- Convention-based auto-detection
+- GitHub expression support (`${{ }}`)
+- Error propagation between validators
+- Security validation (injection, secrets)
+- CalVer, SemVer, flexible versioning
+- Docker platforms, registries

+# Version System Architecture
+
+## Overview
+
+This repository uses a CalVer-based SHA-pinned versioning system for all internal action references.
+
+## Version Format
+
+### CalVer: vYYYY.MM.DD
+
+- **Major**: `v2025` (year, updated annually)
+- **Minor**: `v2025.10` (year.month)
+- **Patch**: `v2025.10.18` (year.month.day)
+
+Example: Release `v2025.10.18` creates three tags pointing to the same commit:
+
+- `v2025.10.18` (patch - specific release)
+- `v2025.10` (minor - latest October 2025 release)
+- `v2025` (major - latest 2025 release)
+
+## Internal vs External References
+
+### Internal (action.yml files)
+
+- **Format**: `ivuorinen/actions/validate-inputs@<40-char-SHA>`
+- **Purpose**: Security, reproducibility, precise control
+- **Example**: `ivuorinen/actions/validate-inputs@7061aafd35a2f21b57653e34f2b634b2a19334a9`
+
+### External (user consumption)
+
+- **Format**: `ivuorinen/actions/validate-inputs@v2025`
+- **Purpose**: Convenience, always gets latest release
+- **Options**: `@v2025`, `@v2025.10`, or `@v2025.10.18`
+
+### Test Workflows
+
+- **Format**: `uses: ./action-name` (local reference)
+- **Location**: `_tests/integration/workflows/*.yml`
+- **Reason**: Tests run within the actions repo context
+
+### Internal Workflows
+
+- **Format**: `uses: ./sync-labels` (local reference)
+- **Location**: `.github/workflows/sync-labels.yml`
+- **Reason**: Runs within the actions repo, local is sufficient
+
+## Release Process
+
+### Creating a Release
+
+```bash
+# 1. Create release with version tags
+make release VERSION=v2025.10.18
+
+# This automatically:
+#   - Updates all action.yml SHA refs to current HEAD
+#   - Commits the changes
+#   - Creates tags: v2025.10.18, v2025.10, v2025
+#   - All tags point to the same commit SHA
+
+# 2. Push to remote
+git push origin main --tags --force-with-lease
+```
+
+### After Each Release
+
+Tags are force-pushed to ensure `v2025` and `v2025.10` always point to latest:
+
+```bash
+git push origin v2025 --force
+git push origin v2025.10 --force
+git push origin v2025.10.18
+```
+
+Or use `--tags --force-with-lease` to push all at once.
+
+## Makefile Targets
+
+### `make release VERSION=v2025.10.18`
+
+Creates new release with version tags and updates all action references.
+
+### `make update-version-refs MAJOR=v2025`
+
+Updates all action.yml files to reference the SHA of the specified major version tag.
+
+### `make bump-major-version OLD=v2025 NEW=v2026`
+
+Annual version bump - replaces all references from one major version to another.
+
+### `make check-version-refs`
+
+Lists all current SHA-pinned references grouped by SHA. Useful for verification.
+
+## Helper Scripts (\_tools/)
+
+### release.sh
+
+Main release script - validates version, updates refs, creates tags.
+
+### validate-version.sh
+
+Validates CalVer format (vYYYY.MM.DD, vYYYY.MM, vYYYY).
+
+### update-action-refs.sh
+
+Updates all action references to a specific SHA or version tag.
+
+### bump-major-version.sh
+
+Handles annual version bumps with commit creation.
+
+### check-version-refs.sh
+
+Displays current SHA-pinned references with tag information.
+
+### get-action-sha.sh
+
+Retrieves SHA for a specific version tag.
+
+## Action Versioning Action
+
+**Location**: `action-versioning/action.yml`
+
+Automatically checks if major version tag has moved and updates all action references.
+
+**Usage in CI**:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: ./action-versioning
+  with:
+    major-version: v2025
+```
+
+**Outputs**:
+
+- `updated`: true/false
+- `commit-sha`: SHA of created commit (if any)
+- `needs-annual-bump`: true/false (year mismatch)
+
+## CI Workflow
+
+**File**: `.github/workflows/version-maintenance.yml`
+
+**Triggers**:
+
+- Weekly (Monday 9 AM UTC)
+- Manual (workflow_dispatch)
+
+**Actions**:
+
+1. Checks if `v2025` tag has moved
+2. Updates action references if needed
+3. Creates PR with changes
+4. Creates issue if annual bump needed
+
+## Annual Version Bump
+
+**When**: Start of each new year
+
+**Process**:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Create new major version tag
+git tag -a v2026 -m "Major version v2026"
+git push origin v2026
+
+# 2. Bump all references
+make bump-major-version OLD=v2025 NEW=v2026
+
+# 3. Update documentation
+make docs
+
+# 4. Push changes
+git push origin main
+```
+
+## Verification
+
+### Check Current Refs
+
+```bash
+make check-version-refs
+```
+
+### Verify All Refs Match
+
+All action references should point to the same SHA after a release.
+
+### Test External Usage
+
+Create a test repo and use:
+
+```yaml
+uses: ivuorinen/actions/pr-lint@v2025
+```
+
+## Migration from @main
+
+All action.yml files have been migrated from:
+
+- `uses: ./action-name`
+- `uses: ivuorinen/actions/action-name@main`
+
+To:
+
+- `uses: ivuorinen/actions/action-name@<SHA>`
+
+Test workflows still use `./action-name` for local testing.
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+**SHA Pinning**: Prevents supply chain attacks by ensuring exact commit is used.
+
+**Version Tags**: Provide user-friendly references while maintaining security internally.
+
+**Tag Verification**: Always verify tags point to expected commits before force-pushing.
+
+**Annual Review**: Each year requires conscious version bump, preventing accidental drift.

+### Memory System
+
+**Location**: `.serena/memories/` (9 consolidated memories for context)
+
+**When to Use**: Read memories at session start or when needed for specific context. Be token-efficient - read only relevant memories for the task.
+
+**Core Memories** (read first for project understanding):
+
+- `repository_overview` – 43 actions, categories, structure, status
+- `validator_system` – Validation architecture, components, usage patterns
+- `development_standards` – Quality rules, workflows, security, completion checklist
+
+**Reference Guides** (read when working on specific areas):
+
+- `code_style_conventions` – EditorConfig, Shell/Python/YAML style, 10 critical prevention rules
+- `suggested_commands` – Make targets, testing commands, tool usage
+- `tech_stack` – Python/Node.js/Shell tools, paths, versions
+
+**GitHub Actions Reference** (read when working with workflows):
+
+- `github-workflow-expressions` – Expression syntax, contexts, operators, common patterns
+- `github-workflow-commands` – Workflow commands (outputs, env, logging, masking)
+- `github-workflow-secure-use` – Security best practices, secrets, injection prevention
+
+**Memory Maintenance**: Update existing memories rather than create new ones. Keep content token-efficient and factual.
+
+### Documentation Locations
+
+**Validation System**: `validate-inputs/docs/` (4 guides: API.md, DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md, ACTION_MAINTAINER.md, README_ARCHITECTURE.md)
+
+**Testing**: `_tests/README.md` (ShellSpec framework, test patterns, running tests)
+
+**Docker Tools**: `_tools/docker-testing-tools/README.md` (CI setup, pre-built testing image)
+
+**See**: `documentation_guide` memory for detailed descriptions and when to read each

 3. Sanitize `$GITHUB_OUTPUT`: use `printf '%s\n' "$val"` not `echo "$val"`
 4. Pin external actions to SHA commits (not `@main`/`@v1`)
 5. Quote shell vars: `"$var"`, `basename -- "$path"` (handles spaces)
-6. Use local paths: `./action-name` (not `owner/repo/action@main`)
+6. Use SHA-pinned refs for internal actions: `ivuorinen/actions/action-name@<SHA>`

 7. Test regex edge cases (support `1.0.0-rc.1`, `1.0.0+build`)
-8. Use `set -euo pipefail` at script start
+8. Use `set -eu` (POSIX) in shell scripts (all scripts are POSIX sh, not bash)
 9. Never nest `${{ }}` in quoted YAML strings (breaks hashFiles)
 10. Provide tool fallbacks (macOS/Windows lack Linux tools)
 
 ### Core Requirements
 
-- External actions SHA-pinned, use `${{ github.token }}`, `set -euo pipefail`
+- All actions SHA-pinned (external + internal), use `${{ github.token }}`, POSIX shell (`set -eu`)
 - EditorConfig: 2-space indent, UTF-8, LF, max 200 chars (120 for MD)
 - Auto-gen README via `action-docs` (note: `npx action-docs --update-readme` doesn't work)
-- Required error handling

+1. **Unit Tests** - Fast validation of action logic, inputs, and outputs using Python validation
 2. **Integration Tests** - Test actions in realistic workflow environments
 3. **External Usage Tests** - Validate actions work as `ivuorinen/actions/action-name@main`
 
 ### Technology Stack
 
 - **Primary Framework**: [ShellSpec](https://shellspec.info/) - BDD testing for shell scripts
+- **Validation**: Python-based input validation via `validate-inputs/validator.py`
 - **Local Execution**: [nektos/act](https://github.com/nektos/act) - Run GitHub Actions locally
-- **Coverage**: kcov integration for shell script coverage
-- **Mocking**: Custom GitHub API and service mocks
 - **CI Integration**: GitHub Actions workflows

-
-- **GitHub API** - Repository, releases, packages, workflows
-- **NPM Registry** - Package publishing and retrieval
-- **Docker Registry** - Image push/pull operations
-- **Container Registries** - GitHub Container Registry, Docker Hub
-
-### Available Environment Variables
+The framework automatically sets up test environments via `spec_helper.sh`:
 
 ```bash

-$GITHUB_OUTPUT         # Mock GitHub outputs file
-$GITHUB_ENV           # Mock GitHub environment file

+### Python Validation Integration
+
+All input validation uses the centralized Python validation system from `validate-inputs/`:
+
+- Convention-based automatic validation
+- 9 specialized validators (Boolean, Version, Token, Numeric, File, Network, Docker, Security, CodeQL)
+- Custom validator support per action
+- Injection and security pattern detection
