+  # The OSSF Scorecard publish endpoint enforces a hard contract: the job that
+  # runs `ossf/scorecard-action` with `publish_results: true` must contain
+  # ONLY steps with `uses:` (no `run:` steps in the same job). If a `run:`
+  # step is present, the publish step fails with:
+  #   "webapp: scorecard job must only have steps with uses"
+  # (49 estate repos hit this; see ROADMAP audit 2026-05-30.)
+  #
+  # Fix: split the threshold check into a downstream job that depends on
+  # `scorecard` and consumes the SARIF artifact. The `scorecard` job stays
+  # uses-only; `check-score` is the gating job that emits the error.
