Research direction
Open workshop/side-quest-16-02-secrets-and-permissions.md and inspect line 14, where the GitHub Secrets link currently targets the safe-outputs reference. Change only that target to https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/environment-variables/, then verify the existing GITHUB_TOKEN and environment variable links remain correct.

Description
Workshop file reviewed
workshop/side-quest-16-02-secrets-and-permissions.md
Problem
The opening paragraph links "GitHub Secrets" to the safe-outputs reference page, which is unrelated:
**[GitHub Secrets](https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/safe-outputs/)** gives you a secure vault for sensitive values that workflows can read without exposing.
The safe-outputs doc (.github/aw/safe-outputs.md → https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/safe-outputs/) documents write-output processing configuration (create-issue, create-pull-request, add-comment, etc.) — it has no content about credential/secret storage.
Current correct syntax / reference
This same workshop file already correctly links GITHUB_TOKEN and "environment variable" later on to:
https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/environment-variables/#system-injected-runtime-variableshttps://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/environment-variables/
That environment-variables reference page is the correct target for secrets/${{ secrets.* }} concepts (confirmed via syntax-core.md, which documents secrets: frontmatter and ${{ secrets.* }} expressions, not safe-outputs.md).
Suggested fix
Update line 14 to point the "GitHub Secrets" link to https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/environment-variables/ instead of https://github.github.com/gh-aw/reference/safe-outputs/.
