PR description says the security-actions group is intended to cover only aquasecurity/trivy-action, but the config uses the broader pattern aquasecurity/* which will group any Aquasecurity action if added in the future. Either narrow the pattern (e.g., to just the trivy action) or update the PR description to match the broader grouping intent.

Narrowed to aquasecurity/trivy-action — only action from that org used in this repo.
