permissions: contents: readto the CI workflow. The workflow checks out the repo, installs dependencies, and runs tests - none of which need write access to repository contents or other API scopes. Pinning the token to read-only follows the principle of least privilege and limits exposure in the event of a compromised dependency or action.More details on token permissions: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/security-for-github-actions/security-guides/automatic-token-authentication
