X Title: Delete CLI output-cache file during `init` by mario-campos · Pull Request #4097 · github/codeql-action
Description: The CLI output-cache file, which was introduced in #4081, is not meant to be used between runs—only steps. On non-ephemeral (i.e. self-hosted) runners, if the temp directories are not cleared between runs, the Action may load a previous ("stale") cache file, which may lead to unexpected results if the CLI has changed. To prevent that from happening, with this PR, the Action will proactively delete the cache file at the expected location early in the init step, if one exists. Risk assessment For internal use only.
