Adds a workflow-level
permissions: contents: readblock to.github/workflows/unit-tests.yml.The unit tests workflow only reads the repository contents; it does not push, comment, or release. Declaring the minimum scope means a compromised third-party action cannot abuse the run's token to escalate. This is the pattern GitHub recommends in their token hardening guide and is what OpenSSF Scorecard's
Token-Permissionscheck looks for.A recent reminder of why this matters: tj-actions/changed-files compromise in March 2025 (CVE-2025-30066).
Verified with
python3 -c "import yaml; yaml.safe_load(open('.github/workflows/unit-tests.yml'))".
