None!
You are thinking of the external intercostal muscle which attaches to the *bone* of the ribs. However, at the cartilage of the rib the muscular portion is replaced by the external intercostal *membrane.*
Muscles produce force on their attachments, causing piezoelectric force which eventually forms the bony landmarks you learn in anatomy lab.
