- Line 15: Replace the mutable action tag used in the workflow
(actions/first-interaction@v1) with the immutable commit SHA it currently points
to (actions/first-interaction@2ec0f0fd78838633cd1c1342e4536d49ef72be54); update
the workflow YAML line containing "uses: actions/first-interaction@v1" to use
the full SHA, save, and commit the change so the onboarding workflow uses the
pinned, immutable version.
