ci(release): grant contents:write to the publish job - #24
Merged
Conversation
Create GitHub Release failed with 403 "Resource not accessible by integration" because the workflow has no permissions block and inherits the repo's read-only default GITHUB_TOKEN. Scope contents:write to the sign-and-publish job (least privilege) so softprops/action-gh-release can create the tag and release. How to verify: dispatch Publish Release (stable); Create GitHub Release publishes v2026.6.0 with the .deb + checksum assets.
