Description
The lockfile statistics scan (discussion #66276) found that all 323 compiled workflows (100%) grant
issues: writepermission in some job, but only 166 (51%) actually declarecreate_issueas a safe output. This is a broad least-privilege gap: roughly half of the fleet carries write permission it never uses.Expected Impact
Reduces the blast radius of a compromised or misbehaving workflow run by scoping generated job permissions to the safe-output types a given workflow actually declares, cutting unnecessary
issues: writegrants roughly in half.Suggested Agent
General Go agent working in the gh-aw compiler's permission-generation code (where job-level
permissions:blocks are emitted based on declared safe outputs)Estimated Effort
Medium (1-4 hours — needs compiler changes plus a recompile/regression check across all
.lock.ymlfiles)Data Source
