Review Comment:
   Grammar: “allows to test the workflow” is unidiomatic; consider “allows 
testing the workflow” (or “allows the workflow to be tested”) for clarity.

Review Comment:
   `inputs.languages` is documented/used as JSON (parsed via `fromJSON`), but 
the default value uses single quotes (`"['actions', 'java']"`), which is not 
valid JSON and will cause `fromJSON(inputs.languages)` to fail at runtime. Use 
a valid JSON array string (double quotes) for the default, and keep examples 
consistent (e.g., `["actions","java"]` or `'["actions", "java"]'`).
   ```suggestion
           default: '["actions", "java"]'
   ```

+# Reusable Workflows
+
+This directory contains
+[reusable GitHub Actions 
workflows](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/reuse-automations/reuse-workflows)
+shared across Apache Commons projects. They provide a consistent and secure CI 
setup without duplicating configuration in each repository.
+
+## CodeQL (`codeql-analysis-reusable.yml`)
+
+Runs a [CodeQL](https://codeql.github.com/) security analysis and uploads the 
results to GitHub's
+code-scanning dashboard. A separate job is created for each analyzed language.
+
+To speed up the Java autobuild step, the workflow tries to restore a Maven 
dependency cache saved by
+a prior build job. For the cache to be found, the build workflow must store it 
under the key:
+
+```
+${{ runner.os }}-maven-${{ hashFiles('**/pom.xml') }}
+```
+
+### Inputs
+
+| Input       | Type   | Default                 | Description                 
                                                                                
                                                                         |

 to analyze. |

Review Comment:
   The documented default for `languages` is shown as `"['actions', 'java']"`, 
but that is not valid JSON (single quotes) while the workflow parses it with 
`fromJSON`. Update the README to use a valid JSON array string (double quotes) 
so users can copy/paste without the reusable workflow failing.
   ```suggestion
   | `languages` | string | `"["actions", "java"]"` | JSON array of [CodeQL 
language 
identifiers](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/code-scanning/creating-an-advanced-setup-for-code-scanning/codeql-language-support)
