Research direction

The issue names CodeQL sink scanning and SARIF output but provides no file, test, or entry point. First determine whether the requested workflow is supported and locate the relevant existing CodeQL guidance; done means documenting a reproducible procedure for scanning only sinks and producing SARIF output.
