ChangesHermes switch hardening
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The new pull-request workflow can use write access to push arbitrary repository changes because its definition is modifiable from the pull request. This creates a high-impact repository security risk and should be replaced with read-only verification or a trusted manually dispatched workflow before merging. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

- Around line 3-9: The pull_request workflow must not receive write access or
perform repository mutations. Change its permissions to read-only and retain
only verification steps; move the apply, commit, and push logic into a separate
workflow triggered manually and restricted to a protected trusted ref, ensuring
checkout does not persist credentials.
- Around line 67-96: Update the semantic-operand assertions in the
StringSwitchImm and UIntSwitchImm normalization tests to compare against the
exact expected normalized strings, retaining the modified semantic operand and
replacing only the jump-table offset with <jt>. Keep the existing baseline and
offset-folding assertions unchanged, and cover each changed operand shown in the
tests.

🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Do not grant a write token to a pull-request workflow.
A same-repository pull request can modify this workflow and use contents: write to push arbitrary commits to automation/hermes-switch-release-20260823. Checking out a fixed ref does not prevent this because GitHub executes the workflow definition from the pull-request head. Credential persistence also exposes the token through Git configuration.
Run pull-request verification with read-only permissions. Move the apply, commit, and push steps to a manually dispatched workflow that runs only from a protected trusted ref.

Tighten Hermes switch disassembly normalization so only the jump-table offset is folded for each opcode shape. Add negative tests covering semantic operands (StringSwitchImm id/default/count; UIntSwitchImm default/min/max) and malformed/unsupported switch forms. The temporary workflow applies the patch, runs lint/typecheck/tests/build, commits the verified changes to this branch, then removes itself.
