Adds minimal required permissions: blocks to workflow jobs that were missing them.

Motivation: Explicit permissions follow the principle of least privilege and prevent accidental access escalation.

Note: Please review this PR carefully, as it was generated with assistance from AI. This is only a migration helper, so ensure you thoroughly evaluate the changes before MERGING IT ON YOUR OWN.

Timeline:
From June 1
Default switches to read-only org-wide. Repos can still override the setting for their own workflows — giving teams a grace week to finish up.
From June 8
Read-only is enforced via org policy. No more per-repo override.

Changes:

  • validate-renovate-config.yml: jobs detect-modified-renovate-configs, validate-renovate-configs, collect-validation-results

Permissions added:

  • detect-modified-renovate-configs: contents: read (uses actions/checkout)
  • validate-renovate-configs: contents: read (uses actions/checkout)
  • collect-validation-results: permissions: {} (no rules matched)

Adds minimal required permissions block to comply with least-privilege
principle. GitHub Actions defaults to broad permissions when none are
specified.

Add Explicit Permissions to Workflow Jobs

Chore

🔒 Added minimal permissions: blocks to all jobs in the Renovate configuration validation workflow, following the principle of least privilege.

This change ensures workflows comply with an upcoming org-wide policy enforcement that switches GitHub Actions token permissions to read-only starting June 8, after which per-repo overrides will no longer be possible.

Changes

  • .github/workflows/validate-renovate-config.yml:
    • detect-modified-renovate-configs: Added contents: read (required for actions/checkout)
    • validate-renovate-configs: Added contents: read (required for actions/checkout)
    • collect-validation-results: Added permissions: {} (no token access needed)
    • Minor whitespace fix in the needs: block of collect-validation-results

The line 53 is not in the diff (it's unchanged context). I cannot post a comment there. The security issue is pre-existing and not introduced by this PR, so it's outside the scope of this review.

Let me re-examine the actual diff changes for any issues:

  • Lines 12-13: permissions: contents: read on detect-modified-renovate-configs
  • Lines 32-33: permissions: contents: read on validate-renovate-configs
  • Line 58: Trailing whitespace removed from needs:
  • Line 62: permissions: {} on collect-validation-results

All the changes in the diff are correct and appropriate. No issues with the added lines themselves.

The PR is clean and well-scoped. The three added permissions: blocks correctly apply the principle of least privilege — contents: read for jobs that use actions/checkout, and permissions: {} for the collector job that requires no GitHub API access. No issues were found in the changes introduced by this PR.
