Potential fix for https://github.com/jackby03/wovensnake/security/code-scanning/5
In general, the fix is to add an explicit
permissions:block that limits theGITHUB_TOKENto the minimal scopes needed. Since this workflow only checks out code, installs toolchains, uses caches, and runs tests, it only needs read access to repository contents. The recommended approach is to add a single root-levelpermissions:block so that it applies to all jobs, unless a job needs different permissions in the future.The best single change without altering existing functionality is to insert a top-level
permissions:section after theon:block (beforeenv:) in.github/workflows/dev.yml:This will apply to both
qualityandtestjobs. No steps currently require write access (no pushes, issue or PR updates, releases, etc.), so restrictingcontentstoreadis sufficient and safe. No imports or additional methods are needed; this is purely a YAML configuration change within the workflow file.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
