Problem
Generated workflows carried
contents: write(andactions: write) at the top level, so OSSF Scorecard flagged high-severity TokenPermissions; every job inherited write scope.Fix
The generator now emits a least-privilege top-level default (
contents: read) and pushes write scopes down to only the jobs that need them: orchestrate finalize getscontents: write(plusdeployments: writefor native deployments); promote finalize getscontents: writeandactions: write; the hotfix and rollback committing jobs get their writes job-scoped. This extends the same least-privilege approach as the merged callback-permissions work (#204) from callback scopes to cascade's own base orchestration scopes. Reusable-workflow caller jobs keep their declared permissions includingid-token: writefor OIDC.Verification
go test ./... (1678 pass); golangci-lint clean; e2e build/vet clean; a new Docker e2e scenario asserts top-level
contents: readwith job-level writes (PASS), and the OIDC callback scenario still passes. cascade verify reports no drift on the regenerated workflows. schema_version unchanged.Addresses the Scorecard TokenPermissions alerts on the generated orchestrate and promote workflows. The hand-authored hotfix.yaml (alert #2) is handled separately.
