chore: bump Claude Code to 2.1.123 and Agent SDK to 0.2.123

* docs: add pull_request_target/workflow_run guidance and base-action trust model

Adds a security.md section on safe checkout patterns under
pull_request_target/workflow_run, and a trust-model section to the
base-action README clarifying that callers are responsible for the
working directory and prompt being trusted.

* docs: refine PRT/workflow_run guidance — root checkout + workflow_run ref

Second example now checks out the base ref at the workspace root before
the head-ref subdirectory checkout (this action expects a git repo at
the root). Adds the workflow_run ref form, drops the PRT-specific
gh-pr-diff hint from the first example, and generalises the closing
line to cover both event types.

* docs: use actions/checkout@v6 in examples (consistency)

 For simply tagging @claude in issues and PRs out of the box, [check out the Claude Code action and GitHub app](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action).
 
+## Trust model
+
+This action is a thin wrapper that installs and runs Claude Code with the inputs you provide. It does **not** enforce any trust boundaries on its own. Running this action in a directory is equivalent to running Claude Code in that directory — Claude reads project-level configuration (`.claude/`, `CLAUDE.md`, `.mcp.json`, etc.) from the working directory, and the action's own setup steps run from there as well.
+
+**The caller is responsible for ensuring the working directory and prompt are trusted.** If your workflow processes untrusted input (issues, fork pull requests, external comments), use [`anthropics/claude-code-action`](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action) instead — it provides actor permission checks, restores project configuration from the base ref in PR contexts, and is the supported path for those scenarios.
+
+See [Claude Code's security documentation](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/security) and the [GitHub Actions guidance on `pull_request_target`](https://securitylab.github.com/research/github-actions-preventing-pwn-requests/) for background.

+
+`pull_request_target` and `workflow_run` execute with the **base repository's secrets**. If your workflow checks out the PR head (`ref: ${{ github.event.pull_request.head.sha }}` for `pull_request_target`, `ref: ${{ github.event.workflow_run.head_sha }}` for `workflow_run`) into `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE` before this action, the action and Claude run with that checkout as the working directory.

+
+```yaml
+# Preferred — check out the base ref (default).
+- uses: actions/checkout@v6 # no `ref:` → base branch
+- uses: anthropics/claude-code-action@v1

+
+```yaml
+# If you need the PR's files locally — check out the base ref at the workspace
+# root (this action expects a git repo there), then check out the head ref into

+### `claude-code-action` vs `claude-code-base-action`
+
+`claude-code-base-action` is a lower-level building block that installs and runs Claude Code with the inputs you provide. It does not perform actor permission checks or restore project configuration from the base ref. If you need those behaviors, use this action (`claude-code-action`). See the [base-action README](../base-action/README.md#trust-model) for details.
