To address this issue, explicitly set a
permissionsblock at either the root of the workflow (recommended for simple cases), or at each individual job (if different jobs have different permission requirements). For this workflow, addingpermissions: contents: readat the root is sufficient, as all steps and jobs only require basic, minimal permissions—none need to write to contents, issues, or other objects. This setting will restrict the GITHUB_TOKEN’s power to the least privilege required for this workflow.Files/regions/lines to change:
.github/workflows/build.ymlat the root, immediately after thename:field (beforeenv:), to add:No extra imports, definitions, or methods are needed.
