+root_cause: |
+  Starting June 1, 2026, GitHub Copilot code review shifted to an agentic tool-calling
+  architecture that runs on GitHub Actions using GitHub-hosted runners. As a result, each
+  Copilot code review on a private repository now consumes GitHub Actions minutes in addition
+  to Copilot AI Credits (under the new usage-based billing model).
+
+  This is not an error in your workflow — your existing workflows are unaffected. The issue
+  is an invisible, automatic Actions workflow that GitHub creates and runs internally for
+  each Copilot code review request on your private repos. The runner time shows up in your
+  Actions billing dashboard as unexpected consumption.
+
+  Affected plans:
+  - GitHub Copilot Pro
+  - GitHub Copilot Pro+
+  - GitHub Copilot Business
+  - GitHub Copilot Enterprise
+  This also includes Copilot code reviews from non-licensed users billed via direct org billing.
+
+  The behavior is by design and cannot be disabled — if Copilot code review is active on
+  private repos, Actions minutes will be consumed. The rate depends on the runner type:
+  - Standard GitHub-hosted runners: standard per-minute Actions rates apply
+  - Larger runners: billed at the larger runner rate
+  - Self-hosted runners: no additional Actions minute charges (self-hosted runner costs apply)
+
+  Organizations that had spending limits set low for Actions (or spending limits set to $0)
+  may find that Copilot code reviews start being blocked when the Actions spending limit is hit,
+  causing the review to fail or not run at all — without a clear error message explaining why.
+
+  There is no way to separate "Copilot code review Actions minutes" from regular workflow
+  Actions minutes in the billing dashboard — they are aggregated together.
+fix: |
+  There is no way to opt out of Actions minute consumption for Copilot code review on private
+  repos while keeping Copilot code review enabled. The available mitigations are:
+
+  1. **Use self-hosted runners**: Configure Copilot code review to use self-hosted runners.
+     Self-hosted runner usage does not count toward your GitHub Actions minute allowance.
+     This is the only way to eliminate the per-review Actions minute charge.
+
+  2. **Increase the Actions spending limit**: Review your organization's Actions spending limit
+     in Settings → Billing & Plans → Spending limits. Ensure the limit covers the expected
+     volume of Copilot code reviews in addition to your regular Actions usage.
+
+  3. **Set up budget controls**: Use GitHub's usage-based billing budget controls to set
+     per-user or organization-wide spending caps for Actions to prevent surprise overages.
+
+  4. **Monitor proactively**: Use GitHub Actions metrics and the Billing Usage Report to
+     track combined Actions + Copilot consumption before the end of the billing cycle.
+
+  5. **Public repositories**: Copilot code review on public repositories does not consume
+     Actions minutes (Actions minutes remain free for public repos).

+root_cause: |
+  In May 2026, GitHub announced it was taking ownership of the Arm64 runner images for
+  GitHub Actions hosted runners, transitioning them away from Arm Limited, LLC (previously
+  maintained in the actions/partner-runner-images repository).
+
+  During this transition period:
+  - ubuntu-24.04-arm and ubuntu-22.04-arm images WILL NOT receive updates
+  - No new release notes appear in actions/runner-images for these images during migration
+  - The actions/partner-runner-images repository is being archived
+  - All open issues and future support are moving to actions/runner-images
+
+  This means workflows running on ubuntu-24.04-arm or ubuntu-22.04-arm during the
+  transition period (May 2026 until migration completes) are running on stale images that
+  may have:
+  - Unpatched security vulnerabilities (CVEs disclosed after the freeze date)
+  - Missing package versions that were released after the freeze date
+  - Outdated tool versions (e.g., Docker, Node.js, Python) compared to the x86 equivalents
+
+  The exact duration of the freeze is not published — GitHub states "during the transition."
+  Developers who pin specific package or tool versions that are only available in newer
+  releases may find those versions unavailable on arm runners while they are available on
+  the x86 equivalents.
+
+  This is a known, intentional operational decision by GitHub during the infrastructure
+  migration. There is no error message — workflows simply run on stale images silently.
+fix: |
+  There is no immediate fix since the image freeze is a deliberate infrastructure choice
+  during the migration. Available mitigations:
+
+  1. **Track the migration status**: Monitor the actions/runner-images repository for
+     announcements about when the Ubuntu Arm64 images resume updates. GitHub has indicated
+     the partner-runner-images repo will be archived after the transition completes.
+
+  2. **Report critical issues directly**: For CVEs or critical vulnerabilities in the arm
+     images during the transition, open an issue in actions/runner-images (NOT
+     actions/partner-runner-images, which is being archived).
+
+  3. **Avoid pinning to specific recent package versions on arm runners**: If your workflow
+     installs packages with exact version pinning, add a fallback or use the latest available
+     version rather than a specific recent release that may not be in the frozen image.
+
+  4. **Use self-hosted Arm64 runners**: If the image freeze causes unacceptable security or
+     tool-version risk, consider switching to self-hosted Arm64 runners where you control
+     the image update cadence.
+
+  5. **Test cross-architecture differences**: If workflows behave differently on x86 vs arm
+     during this period, check whether the discrepancy is due to the arm image being stale
+     rather than a genuine architecture difference.

+  - 'Must use import to load ES Module: .../node_modules/@actions/core/lib/core.js'
+root_cause: |
+  @actions/core version 3.0.0 (published January 29, 2026) converted the package from CommonJS
+  to ESM-only. Before v3, the package shipped as CommonJS and was consumable with:
+
+    const core = require('@actions/core');
+
+  With v3.0.0 and later, the package is ESM-only. CommonJS callers that use require() receive
+  one of these errors at runtime:
+
+    - ERR_REQUIRE_ESM: Node.js refuses to require() an ES module
+    - "No 'exports' main defined in @actions/core/package.json @v3" — the ESM package.json
+      exports map does not expose a CommonJS entry point
+
+  This affects any custom JavaScript or TypeScript action that:
+  1. Uses require('@actions/core') — e.g., const core = require('@actions/core');
+  2. Uses TypeScript compiled to CommonJS (the default 'module': 'commonjs' in tsconfig.json)
+     even when source code uses import syntax — the compiled output uses require() calls
+  3. Bundles with webpack/ncc in CommonJS mode without transpiling the ESM dependency
+
+  The actions/typescript-action template and thousands of published community actions that
+  were written for @actions/core v1–v2 are affected when their dependencies are updated.
+
+  Note: This is a Node.js runtime error — the workflow definition is valid YAML. The failure
+  appears in the step log when Node.js tries to load the bundled action.
+fix: |
+  There are two approaches depending on whether you control the action source code:
+
+  Option A — Migrate the action to ESM (recommended for new actions):
+  Update the action's package.json to "type": "module", convert all require() calls to
+  import statements, and recompile/rebundle. Use "module": "ESNext" or "module": "NodeNext"
+  in tsconfig.json for TypeScript actions.
+
+  Option B — Pin @actions/core to v2.x (quick fix for existing actions):
+  Pin to the last CommonJS-compatible version: @actions/core@^2.0.3 in package.json.
+  This avoids the ESM migration but misses v3 improvements (new APIs, performance).
+
+  For third-party community actions you don't control: check if the action maintainer has
+  published an updated version. If not, pin the action to the last working version tag
+  (before they upgraded to @actions/core v3).

+  - 'on.schedule[0]: unexpected key "timezone"'
+root_cause: |
+  GitHub Actions added IANA timezone support for scheduled workflows in March 2026
+  (announced in the Late March 2026 changelog). The new syntax allows specifying a timezone
+  alongside the cron expression:
+
+    on:
+      schedule:
+        - cron: '30 5 * * 1-5'
+          timezone: "America/New_York"
+
+  However, this feature was not immediately recognized by external workflow-parsing tools:
+
+  1. **actionlint** — The widely-used GitHub Actions linting tool (used in many CI pipelines
+     as a pre-commit or CI check) did not support the timezone key until version 0.7.4
+     (released March 30, 2026). Earlier versions report the error:
+       expected "cron" key for element of "schedule" section but got "timezone" [syntax-check]
+     This causes actionlint-based CI checks to fail even though the workflow is valid.
+
+  2. **ossf/scorecard-action** — The OpenSSF Scorecard action verifies workflow structure
+     using an internal parser that did not recognize the timezone key. When scorecard-action
+     runs on a workflow that contains `timezone:`, it returns HTTP 400 from the Scorecard API:
+       workflow verification failed: unable to parse github workflow: [...timezone [syntax-check]]
+     This causes the scorecard CI job to fail on otherwise-valid workflows.
+
+  3. **GitHub VS Code extension** — The vscode-github-actions extension (v0.29.1 and earlier)
+     marks timezone as an "unexpected value" in the schema validation overlay, producing
+     squiggly underlines even though the workflow runs correctly.
+
+  The root issue is that the new timezone key was added to GitHub's workflow syntax faster
+  than third-party tooling could update their schema definitions.
+fix: |
+  Upgrade the affected tools to versions that support the timezone key:
+
+  1. **actionlint**: Upgrade to version 0.7.4 or later. Pin the actionlint version in your
+     CI workflow to avoid surprise failures on future schema changes.
+
+  2. **ossf/scorecard-action**: Upgrade to the latest version. The Scorecard API was updated
+     to recognize the timezone key. If you cannot upgrade, temporarily remove the timezone
+     field from your schedule — or use the @latest tag to stay on the most recent release.
+
+  3. **GitHub VS Code extension**: Upgrade to the latest version from the VS Code marketplace.
+     The false-positive schema warning has no runtime effect and does not affect workflow
+     execution.
+
+  If you are blocked from upgrading tools (e.g., in a corporate environment), you can work
+  around the linting error by keeping the cron in UTC and removing the timezone field,
+  adjusting the cron expression offset manually for the desired local time.
