Potential fix for https://github.com/arthurfiorette/try/security/code-scanning/2

In general, the fix is to add an explicit permissions block that grants only the minimum required scopes to GITHUB_TOKEN. For a simple CI workflow that just checks out code, installs dependencies, runs checks, and uploads coverage to Codecov using its own token, contents: read is sufficient. This can be set at the workflow root (applies to all jobs) or at the specific job level.

The best, least intrusive fix here is to add a workflow-level permissions block immediately after the name: Code CI line in .github/workflows/ci.yml, setting contents: read. This will restrict GITHUB_TOKEN to only read repository contents for the whole workflow, without changing any existing job behavior. No additional imports, methods, or definitions are needed; this is purely a YAML configuration change within the GitHub Actions workflow file.

Specifically, edit .github/workflows/ci.yml to insert:

permissions:
  contents: read

after line 1 (name: Code CI). All other lines remain unchanged.
