Description
```
The following actions are not allowed to be used inside a required workflow: github/codeql-action/analyze@v3, github/codeql-action/init@v3
```
Reading [GH Docs](https://docs.github.com/en/enterprise-server@3.11/actions/sharing-automations/required-workflows#restrictions-and-behaviors-for-the-source-repository)
> CodeQL is not supported in required workflows because CodeQL requires configuration at the repository level.
Which generally is true, but in this case we're actually fine.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked GitHub documentation on required-workflow restrictions and the repository's workflow configuration. Determine why the CodeQL actions are rejected here despite the stated repository-level configuration, and verify that the required workflow can run CodeQL successfully without the restriction error.
