golangci-lint no longer runs on the host. script/lint builds
Dockerfile.lint, which copies the repo into the digest-pinned
golangci-lint image and lints as a build step, so a successful build is
a clean lint. The host binary shared one cache and one lock with every
other checkout on the machine, which produced findings attributed to
unrelated worktrees as well as unearned passes.
Two properties the wrapper has to get right:
- --no-cache-filter=lint forces the lint stage to re-execute. Without
it an unchanged tree replays the layer and the build exits 0 in under
a second having linted nothing. The deps stage stays cacheable.
- Both lint steps use RUN --network=none. golangci-lint config verify
is documented as fetching its JSON schema over HTTPS; the pinned
image resolves it with no network, and --network=none enforces that
rather than trusting it. Verify is kept because golangci-lint run
silently ignores config keys it does not recognize.
The main Dockerfile's lint stage now invokes golangci-lint directly
instead of `make lint`, which would otherwise need a docker daemon
inside the build.
golangci-lint installation is removed from script/bootstrap.
Bumps golangci-lint from v2.11.3 to v2.12.2 and adopts the canonical lint config.
## Version pins
- `Dockerfile`: `golangci/golangci-lint:v2.12.2` Debian image, pinned by digest, dated `2026-08-07`
- `script/bootstrap`: `GOLANGCI_LINT_VERSION=2.12.2` with updated sha256 pins for the `linux-amd64` and `linux-arm64` release archives
## Config
`.golangci.yml` replaced with the canonical config. The previous file kept `lll`/`funlen`/`cyclop`/`dupl` settings under the top-level `linters-settings` key, which the v2 schema ignores; the canonical config nests them under `linters.settings`, so those thresholds now actually apply. The unsupported `issues.exclude-use-default` key was dropped.
## Lint fixes (32 findings)
- `lll` (7): wrapped or shortened over-length lines (struct tag comments moved above fields, test logger construction split, `session.NewForTest` signature wrapped, shortened a `#nosec` comment)
- `goconst` (17): replaced repeated `"POST"`/`"PUT"` literals with `http.MethodPost`/`http.MethodPut`, added shared test constants for `webhooker-test`/`test`/`application/json`, and added `tmplKeyError`/`tmplKeyWebhook` constants for template data keys in `internal/handlers`
- `dupl` (8): merged `buildHTTPTargetConfig` and `buildSlackTargetConfig` into a parameterized `buildURLTargetConfig`; removed the duplicate `iWebhookDB` test helper in favor of `testWebhookDB`; extracted shared helpers in middleware and session tests
No `//nolint` directives were added and behavior is unchanged. `make check` (fmt-check, tests, lint) passes.
Note: golangci-lint v2.12 deprecates the `gomodguard` linter in favor of `gomodguard_v2`; the canonical config change for that is left for a future coordinated update.
