-name: Secret Scanner
+# Calls the estate's shared secret scanner (gitleaks + rust-secrets +
+# shell-secrets). Replaces an inline trufflehog job: trufflehog was retired
+# estate-wide as redundant, and this repo had no other leak scanning, so the
+# scanner is UPGRADED here rather than removed.
+#
+# `secrets: inherit` is REQUIRED — without it the gitleaks action's inner
+# secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN is empty and the scan silently degrades.
