Description
**Workflow**: `Daily Runtime Threat Scan` (`.github/workflows/daily-runtime-threat-scan.lock.yml`) in `github/gh-aw-actions`
**Error signature**: activation job fails at step "Check compile-agentic version" with:
```
##[error]Blocked compile-agentic version: v0.83.1 is in the blocked versions list. Update gh-aw to the latest version and recompile your workflow.
```
**Affected runs**:
- https://github.com/github/gh-aw-actions/actions/runs/33807348028
- https://github.com/github/gh-aw-actions/actions/runs/33802522237
**Probable root cause**: the workflow's compiled lock file was generated with `gh-aw`/`compile-agentic` version `v0.83.1` (visible in the run env as `GH_AW_COMPILED_VERSION: v0.83.1`). The activation job's version-check step fetches `.github/aw/compat.json` from the repository's `main` branch and finds `v0.83.1` listed as blocked, so it fails before the agent job can start. This blocks every run of this workflow until the compiled version is updated.
**Proposed remediation**: update the `gh-aw` toolchain used to compile `daily-runtime-threat-scan.md` to a version newer than v0.83.1 (one not present in `.github/aw/compat.json`'s blocked list), then recompile with `gh aw compile` and commit the regenerated `.lock.yml`.
**Success criteria**: the next scheduled or manual run of `Daily Runtime Threat Scan` passes the "Check compile-agentic version" activation step and proceeds to the agent job.

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with .github/workflows/daily-runtime-threat-scan.lock.yml and the workflow source daily-runtime-threat-scan.md, then inspect .github/aw/compat.json for the blocked version. Update the gh-aw toolchain, run gh aw compile, and commit the regenerated lock file; the next scheduled or manual run should pass the version-check step and reach the agent job.
