Summary

Resolves CodeQL security alert #1: Workflow does not contain permissions

Changes

Added an explicit permissions block to .github/workflows/ci.yml with contents: read

Why This Matters

  • Security: Without explicit permissions, workflows inherit default repository permissions
  • Least Privilege Principle: This limits the GITHUB_TOKEN to only contents: read
  • CWE-275: Addresses the Improper Access Control weakness flagged by CodeQL

References
