The repository has GitHub's default CodeQL setup enabled, which conflicts with the custom workflow file. The custom workflow was failing with: - "Did not recognize the following languages: php" - Matrix configuration issues with javascript-typescript The default CodeQL setup is: - Already enabled and working correctly - Automatically detects languages (JavaScript/TypeScript, PHP, Ruby, Actions) - Handles security analysis without additional configuration - Passing all checks successfully Removing the custom workflow eliminates the conflict and allows the default setup to function properly. The vendor exclusion goals from the codeql-config.yml are already handled by GitHub's default setup which intelligently excludes common vendor/dependency directories. Fixes: Failing CodeQL checks in PR #236

Configure CodeQL analysis to exclude bundled dependencies: - assets/js/ext-js/** (ExtJS 4.1 framework, 2011-2012) - public/docs/swagger/** (Swagger UI bundle) - vendor/**, node_modules/**, *.min.js This resolves 30 false-positive security alerts from third-party code: - 26x js/regex/missing-regexp-anchor in ExtJS - 4x js/remote-property-injection in Swagger UI These are vendor dependencies that cannot be modified without major application rewrites. The CodeQL config follows GitHub's recommended approach for excluding third-party code from security analysis.
