github/codeql-action v4.35.3 (bumped in 1fdd849) calls the workflow-runs API to compute the diff range for incremental analysis. Without actions: read on the GITHUB_TOKEN, the analyze step fails with "Resource not accessible by integration". Permissions defined in code-scan.yml don't propagate to this nested reusable workflow, so they need to be declared here too. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

github/codeql-actionwas bumped from v4.35.2 → v4.35.3 in 1fdd849 (2026-05-04). v4.35.3 callsGET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/actions/runs/{run_id}to compute the diff range for incremental analysis ("Generating diff range extension pack" in the logs). That call requiresactions: readon theGITHUB_TOKEN.code-scan.ymlalready declares the right permissions, but reusable-workflow permissions don't propagate to nested reusable workflows — eachworkflow_callfile needs its ownpermissions:block, otherwise it falls back to the repo/org default token scopes. That's why scheduled scans started failing this week with:Each scope is needed for:
