Potential fix for https://github.com/Lisa-Gorewit-Decker/javascriptalgorithms/security/code-scanning/1

Add an explicit permissions block at the workflow root so all jobs inherit least-privilege defaults. For this workflow, the minimal safe baseline is:

  • contents: read

This preserves existing behavior for checkout/test/lint while ensuring the token is not implicitly over-privileged.
Edit .github/workflows/CI.yml near the top-level keys (after on: block and before jobs: is clean and conventional). No imports, methods, or extra definitions are needed.
