In general, the fix is to add an explicit
permissionsblock that restricts theGITHUB_TOKENto the minimal scopes needed. For this CI workflow, the jobs only need to read the repository contents to build and test, socontents: readis sufficient. Defining this at the workflow root applies to all jobs that don’t override permissions individually, which matches the current structure and avoids duplicating configuration.The best fix with no functional change is to insert a workflow-level
permissionsblock near the top of.github/workflows/ci.yml, for example immediately after theon:section (or aftername:), specifyingcontents: read. This ensures bothtestandfmtjobs run with a read-onlyGITHUB_TOKEN. No additional imports, actions, or dependencies are required, and no existing steps need modification.Concretely:
.github/workflows/ci.yml.at the root level (aligned with
name,on, andenv), so it applies to all jobs.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
