Description

1 new gh-aw (pre)release scanned (v0.89.0), 1 threat-detection-related change found.

## Releases
- v0.89.0 (prerelease, 2026-09-09) — https://github.com/github/gh-aw/releases/tag/v0.89.0

## Threat-detection changes
- [#59636](https://github.com/github/gh-aw/pull/59636) — Fix threat detection reporting `config_error` for workflows using custom engines, so custom-engine workflows now get proper threat analysis instead of silently skipping it — shipped in v0.89.0

## Why this matters
This repository ships the `threat-detect` binary consumed by `gh-aw`; changes to how gh-aw invokes or gates on threat detection may require matching updates here to stay in parity.

Research direction

Start by reading gh-aw release v0.89.0 and upstream pull request #59636, then inspect how this repository's threat-detect binary is invoked and how custom engines affect threat analysis. Done means determining whether the upstream custom-engine change requires a matching update here and documenting or implementing the required parity work with appropriate validation.
