fix(ci): grant callers the permissions their reusable workflows declare - #70
Conversation
📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe workflows now declare job-level permissions for reading Actions and repository contents, and for writing security events. ChangesWorkflow permissions
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Change: Bug fix Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to The mirror workflow file is malformed and will fail to load, so the mirroring automation stops running until the indentation of the new permissions block is corrected. The other two workflow permission updates are valid. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

- Line 19: Correct the indentation of the permissions mapping in the mirror job
so it is a sibling of uses and secrets, not nested under secrets: inherit. Keep
the existing actions, contents, and security-events permission entries

Place permissions at the job level.
Line 19 has six leading spaces, so it is indented below secrets: inherit instead of being a sibling of uses and secrets. The YAML parser reports mapping values are not allowed in this context at line 19. GitHub Actions cannot load this workflow.

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

GitHub refuses these runs at workflow-creation time:
Error calling workflow ... The workflow is requesting '<perm>', but is only allowed '<none>'.Aworkflow_calljob must grant a superset of the callee's declared permissions. This adds the canonical grant (actions: read,contents: read,security-events: write) that the healthy repos already carry.
