Potential fix for https://github.com/codeharborhub/tutorial/security/code-scanning/6
In general, the fix is to explicitly declare
permissionsfor the workflow or specific jobs so that theGITHUB_TOKENhas only the scopes needed. For this workflow, the job only checks out code and runs Node-based install/build steps, so it only needs read access to repository contents.The best minimal fix without changing behavior is to add a
permissionsblock settingcontents: read. This can be added either at the workflow root (applies to all jobs) or within thetest-deployjob. Since there is only one job in the provided snippet, we can add it at the job level to directly address the CodeQL warning at that job. Concretely, in.github/workflows/test-deploy.yml, insert:between the
runs-on: ubuntu-latestline and thesteps:line inside thetest-deployjob. No imports or additional definitions are needed.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
