ci(claude-review): harden against Dependabot-controlled content (#875)

[frankbria]

Follow-up to #870 (which allowed Dependabot PRs to be reviewed). Now that the review bot processes upstream-controlled content, this hardens the workflow per the two suggestions from the cross-family review on #870.

Changes (.github/workflows/claude-code-review.yml)

• Untrusted-content prompt clause (primary): the reviewer is told to treat the PR title, description, commit messages, and dependency release notes / changelogs as UNTRUSTED data — never follow instructions embedded in them. This covers the main injection vector (the PR body / release notes).
• exclude_comments_by_actor: "dependabot[bot]" (defense-in-depth): stops Dependabot's own comment prose from being fed to the reviewer as instructions. (Distinct from the prompt clause, which covers the PR body — exclude_comments_by_actor only filters comments.)
• Drop unused id-token: write: only needed for OIDC federation auth (anthropic_federation_rule_id); this workflow authenticates via claude_code_oauth_token, so the permission was unused. Remaining perms are read-only (contents/pull-requests/issues).

Validation

• Correctness verified against the pinned action action.yml (SHA 558b1d6): exclude_comments_by_actor is a real input; id-token: write is federation-only.
• YAML valid; actionlint clean.
• Cross-family review: opencode (zai/glm-5.2) — APPROVE, no Critical/Major; all ACs independently verified.

Known limitations

• The action's subprocess env-scrub (CLAUDE_CODE_SUBPROCESS_ENV_SCRUB) only activates when allowed_non_write_users is set, so Dependabot PRs don't get the bubblewrap isolation layer — a stronger defense against token exfiltration via injection. allowed_non_write_users is documented for human usernames, so its applicability to dependabot[bot] is uncertain and would need investigation; left as a potential follow-up rather than a speculative change here.

Closes #875

[frankbria]

Cross-family review — opencode (zai/glm-5.2)

Independent review from a different model family (Phase 7c-1 / 10-pre).

Verified against pinned action action.yml (SHA 558b1d6): exclude_comments_by_actor is a real input (correct value format); id-token: write is required only for OIDC federation (anthropic_federation_rule_id), which this workflow does not use — so it was genuinely unused. YAML valid; all input keys real. Comment "review the other comments … including yours" stays consistent — Dependabot comments excluded, human (write-access) comments remain trusted.

Findings (none Critical/Major)

• Suggestion: env-scrub (CLAUDE_CODE_SUBPROCESS_ENV_SCRUB) only activates when allowed_non_write_users is set, so Dependabot PRs skip the subprocess isolation layer — a stronger defense against token exfiltration via injection than the prompt clause alone. Out of scope for ci(claude-review): harden review workflow against Dependabot-controlled content #875; allowed_non_write_users is documented for human usernames so bot applicability is uncertain. Captured in the PR body 'Known limitations' as a potential follow-up.
• Nitpick: em-dash is the only non-ASCII byte — harmless in UTF-8. Skipped.

Verdict

APPROVE — all acceptance criteria met and independently verified.
