Pull request overview
This PR updates the repository’s CodeQL GitHub Actions workflow to avoid github/codeql-action/autobuild, which can be unreliable for Maven multi-module projects, and instead runs an explicit Maven wrapper build so CodeQL analyzes compiled artifacts consistently.
Changes:
- Removed the
github/codeql-action/autobuildstep from the CodeQL workflow. - Added an explicit Maven build step (
./mvnw clean verify -DskipTests) prior to analysis. - Removed stale commented-out manual build instructions.
