Potential fix for https://github.com/Clay-foundation/model/security/code-scanning/1
To fix the problem, we should explicitly add a
permissionsblock to thebuild-bookjob in the.github/workflows/deploy-docs.ymlworkflow, granting it only the minimal privilege required, which iscontents: read. This prevents the job from inheriting potentially excessive default permissions from the repository or organization, adhering to the principle of least privilege. This change is made in the job definition forbuild-book, ideally immediately afterruns-on: ubuntu-22.04(line 26). No new imports or method definitions are necessary; this is a configuration fix within the YAML file.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
