Severity: MEDIUM | Confidence: 8/10 | Status: VERIFIED

What

No .github/CODEOWNERS file exists. Anyone with write access can modify .github/workflows/ without mandatory review.

Impact

Workflow files control CI/CD, secrets access, and deployments. Unreviewed changes could exfiltrate secrets or inject malicious code.

Fix

Create .github/CODEOWNERS:

.github/workflows/  @NousResearch/hermes-maintainers
.github/actions/    @NousResearch/hermes-maintainers

Then enable branch protection requiring CODEOWNERS review for these paths.
