Dependency Security Scanner

Dependency Security Scanner - Reusable Workflow

COMPOUND WRAPPER: Runs OSV + Dependency Review scanners in parallel. All scanning logic is in: - .github/actions/scanner-osv/action.yml - .github/actions/scanner-dependency-review/action.yml

Note: Dependency Review only works on pull_request events. On other triggers it skips gracefully with a warning annotation.

For GHES users: Use the composite actions directly instead of this workflow.

uses: huntridge-labs/argus/.github/workflows/dependency-scan.yml@0.6.7
