   The CodeQL workflow looks fine.  The thing to note is that CodeQL shares Actions rate limits with all the other workflows on the repo, and they seem to have a highly matrixed build.  I'd suggest that you consider running that build through a GitHub app / similar to get a higher rate limit https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/limits#commonly-hit-dependent-service-limits

   Thanks for the reply, but why is CodeQL is the only one failing due to this rate limit then ?
