-This action runs GitHub's industry-leading static analysis engine, CodeQL, against a repository's source code to find security vulnerabilities. It then automatically uploads the results to GitHub so they can be displayed in the repository's security tab. CodeQL runs an extensible set of [queries](https://github.com/semmle/ql), which have been developed by the community and the [GitHub Security Lab](https://securitylab.github.com/) to find common vulnerabilities in your code.

-The CodeQL action should be run on `push` events, and on a `schedule`. `Push` events allow us to do detailed analysis of the delta in a pull request, while the `schedule` event ensures that GitHub regularly scans the repository for the latest vulnerabilities, even if the repository becomes inactive.

This action does not support the `pull_request` event.
+
+### Configuration
+
 You may optionally specify additional queries for CodeQL to execute by using a config file. The queries must belong to a [QL pack](https://help.semmle.com/codeql/codeql-cli/reference/qlpack-overview.html) and can be in your repository or any public repository. You can choose a single .ql file, a folder containing multiple .ql files, a .qls [query suite](https://help.semmle.com/codeql/codeql-cli/procedures/query-suites.html) file, or any combination of the above. To use queries from other repositories use the same syntax as when [using an action](https://help.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#jobsjob_idstepsuses).
 
 You can choose to ignore some files or folders from the analysis, or include additional files/folders for analysis. This *only* works for Javascript and Python analysis.
 Identifying potential files for extraction:
-- Scans each folder that's defined as `paths` in turn, traversing subfolders and looking for relevant files.

+- Scans each folder that's defined as `paths` in turn, traversing subfolders, and looking for relevant files.
 - If it finds a subfolder that's defined as `paths-ignore`, stop traversing.
 - If a file or folder is both in `paths` and `paths-ignore`, the `paths-ignore` is ignored.
