To fix the issue, we need to add an explicit
permissionsblock to the workflow. This block should limit theGITHUB_TOKENpermissions to the minimum required for the jobs. Based on the workflow's operations, thecontents: readpermission is sufficient for most steps, and no write permissions are needed.The
permissionsblock can be added at the root level of the workflow to apply to all jobs, or it can be added individually to each job. In this case, adding it at the root level is more efficient since all jobs appear to require the same minimal permissions.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
