To fix the problem, explicitly define a
permissionsblock assigning the least privileges required for this workflow. Since the job only checks out code, caches data, runs Python, and uploads artifacts—none of which require write access to repository contents or other GitHub resources—it can safely usecontents: readat the workflow or job level.The best minimal fix without changing functionality is to add a top-level
permissionsblock so it applies to all jobs in this workflow. In.github/workflows/update.yml, between thename: Alt Sources Dry Runline and theon:block, insert:This documents that the workflow only needs read access to repository contents and constrains
GITHUB_TOKENaccordingly. No imports, methods, or additional definitions are needed; this is purely a YAML configuration change in the workflow file.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
