Research direction

Start by reproducing the workflow shown in the issue, focusing on the github/codeql-action/init@v3 and analyze@v3 steps and the .github/codeql/codeql-config.yml reference. Compare the completed workflow run with the CodeQL check status and determine what evidence explains why it remains in progress; done means the cause and a verified resolution are documented.
