Pull request overview
This PR refactors the generate-tool-inventory composite GitHub Action to stop performing its own repository checkout, and instead moves responsibility for making the allowlist/tool-inventory file available to the calling workflow, improving action reusability and avoiding redundant checkouts.
Changes:
- Removed the internal
actions/checkoutstep from thegenerate-tool-inventorycomposite action and updated it to use the input path directly forALLOWLIST. - Updated the reusable build/push workflow to conditionally
checkoutonly the requested tool inventory allowlist file (via sparse checkout) before running the action.

You could have the same capabilities but better runtime performances if you use a MegaLinter flavor:
- oxsecurity/megalinter/flavors/salesforce@v9.6.0 (57 linters)
- oxsecurity/megalinter/flavors/javascript@v9.6.0 (63 linters)

🚀 Hey, I have created a Pull Request
Description of changes
This pull request updates the way the allowlist file is handled in the
generate-tool-inventoryGitHub Action and its usage in the workflow. The main change is moving the responsibility for checking out the allowlist/tool-inventory file from the action itself to the workflow, resulting in a simpler and more flexible action.Workflow and Action Refactoring:
ALLOWLISTenvironment variable in the action now directly references the input path, since the workflow ensures the file is present.✔️ Checklist
