Potential fix for https://github.com/jacklowrie/chordnet/security/code-scanning/2

To address the issue, add a permissions block restricting the GITHUB_TOKEN's access. The CodeQL recommendation is to start with permissions: { contents: read }, which allows Actions to fetch repository contents but not to perform write actions (such as modifying releases, issues, or committing code).

This should be added near the top, either at the workflow root (applies to all jobs and is preferred for simplicity), or within each individual job if different scopes are needed per job (not required here).
Change to make:

  • Insert the block:
    permissions:
      contents: read
    immediately after the name: Pipeline line (line 4).

No additional methods, imports, or special constructs are needed—just an added permissions section in the YAML. No dependencies or further edits are required.
