Summary

  • The Gusto enterprise-level security config (Gusto Default Advanced Security, enforced) disables code scanning default (automatic) setup org/enterprise-wide, overriding this org's own "enabled" setting.
  • That conflict has left this repo's default CodeQL setup stuck erroring for both the ruby and actions language configs since 2025-05-14 (the date the enterprise policy took effect), which is what shows up as "Errors detected in 2 configurations" on the CodeQL status page.
  • Adds .github/workflows/codeql.yml, an explicit advanced setup workflow covering the same two languages. Pushing an advanced CodeQL workflow causes GitHub to automatically supersede the broken default-setup state, since advanced setup isn't subject to the same enterprise policy.

Test plan

  • Merge and confirm the CodeQL workflow runs successfully on main for both the ruby and actions matrix jobs
  • Confirm the code scanning status page no longer reports configuration errors

The enterprise-enforced security config disables code scanning default
(automatic) setup, which has left this repo's default CodeQL analysis
stuck erroring since 2025-05-14. Adding an explicit workflow switches
to advanced setup, which is unaffected by that policy.
