To fix the problem, you should explicitly declare a
permissionsblock to restrict the default GITHUB_TOKEN access. The safest minimal approach is to setpermissions: { contents: read }at the top level of the workflow. This restricts all jobs to only the read permission on repository contents, which is sufficient for building and testing code. Place thispermissionskey at the top of the file, directly under thename:/workflow title (line 5), or directly betweenname:andon:.
